Podarcis muralis maculiventris (wild)
48.17316 16.431821
Introduced population that was first recognized in 2011 but apparently has been established here for at least 30 years. Genetical analysis came to the conclusion that these lizards belong to the eastern lineage of P. m. maculiventris. Due to this it is beeing speculated that the first individuals were brought here by vacationers as `souvenirs` (probably from the upper adriatic region). PHILIP SCHAFFER Source: iNaturalist.org
