discussion

The Four-lined Snake was first reported from the island by Schulz (1996: 213), not providing details on this finding. Later the species was also reported by Thanou et al. (2019: 103 and Supplementary material) and Schmid (2019: 73). We found several individuals between Agios Petros and Komilio (17 / 5 / 2019), south of Maranthochori lake (17 / 5 / 2019, Fig. 3 E), Agios Petros (17 / 5 / 2019), Sivros (19 / 5 / 2019), Steno (S of Nydri) (19 / 5 / 2019), Athani (23 / 5 / 2019). In addition, there are four citizen science records (April and May 2019), but their localities are not available since coordinates are obscured for threatened species.
