Trioceros feae (Boulenger, 1906)

Chamaeleon feae Boulenger, 1906: 207 . Type locality: “ Moka, Fernando Po, 1300–1500 m. altitude” (=Bioko).

Chamaeleo montium feae Boulenger, 1906: Mertens 1964a: 212.

Trioceros feae (Boulenger, 1906): Tilbury & Tolley 2009: 66.

Distribution. Endemic to Bioko. In Bioko it has been recorded at Moka (Boulenger 1906; Mertens 1964a) (Map 5B).

Comments. It is usually found at high elevations (1200–1500 m) (Mertens 1964a). It is closely allied to T. camerunensis (Pook & Wild 1997) . Five specimens conserved at the EBD collection are included in the same jar with two specimens of two different species, a single one of T. cristatus and another one of C. dilepis, all of them labelled as coming from San Joaquín de Ndyiacom, Río Muni, and sharing the number EBD 31501. However, T. feae is endemic to Bioko and this case likely represents a labelling mistake.

Specimens examined. Six specimens. Bioko: Moka, Bioko Sur, 23 July 1984 (EBD 18598). Labelling mistake, “San Joaquín de Ndyiacom” for the specimens B-9271, B-9595, B-9203, B-9363, B-9266 (all of them share the label EBD 31501 with a specimen of Trioceros cristatus and another one of Chamaeleo dilepis).
