Anew locality is reported here in eastern
Turkey. Data based on meristic pholidosis characters, metric measurements and color-patter features of the
specimens from eastern Turkey were given in detail and compared with data given in the previous literature. In addition,
the first record of Iranolacerta brandtii from outside of Iran is reported here. Yildiz, M.Z. & Igci, N.

The distribution of I. brandtii is extended approximately 230 km eastwards into Van province, Turkey, showing that this species is not endemic to Iran as previously stated in the literature. Seven specimens were collected from four different localities between May and September 2014. Specimens were evaluated with respect to their morphological characters and some ecological features and their taxonomical status is also discussed.
