Liolaemus stolzmanni, commonly known as Stolzmann's Pacific iguana, is a species of lizard in the family Liolaemidae.
Etymology[edit]
The specific name, stolzmanni, is in honor of Polish zoologist Jean Stanislas Stolzmann.[3]
Distribution[edit]
Liolaemus stolzmanni is endemic to Chile,[2] with occurrence noted in the Chilean matorral.[4] Reports from Peru instead represent either Liolaemus pachecoi, Liolaemus poconchilensis, or an undescribed species.[2]
Reproduction[edit]
Liolaemus stolzmanni is viviparous.[2]
