Main Article Content
Abstract
Trapelus boehmei, one of the species of the family Agamidae found in Algeria, which are mainly distributed on the High Plateau, from M’sila to Naâma and Tlemcen-south with an uncertain presence from Batna and it extends to the entire east of Algeria between El Tarf and Tebessa.
