Resumen
RAMIREZ-CHAVES, Héctor E. et al. Non-avian reptiles (Reptilia) collection, Museo de Historia Natural of the Universidad de Caldas, Colombia. Biota colombiana [online]. 2021, vol.22, n.2, pp.173-181. Epub 30-Jul-2021. ISSN 0124-5376. https://doi.org/10.21068/c2021.v22n02a11.
The knowledge of reptiles in Colombia is still incomplete, although the country harbors a high diversity of this group. In recent years, regional collections have helped to fill information gaps on the biogeography, intra- and interspecific variation, and systematics of several groups. Here we present the information of 613 voucher records deposited in the Reptile Collection of the Museo de Historia Natural of the Universidad de Caldas. Most of the records (527) come from the Department of Caldas, but there are records for 15 additional departments. The best represented order is Squamata (603 records). The collection houses 108 specimens that have been referenced in 20 national and foreign publications.
