Abstract :
During field work in southern Iran in March 2011 one adult female (gravid) Stenodactylus affinis was collected in the early morning from a hard-packed salt substrate with sparse vegetation on the road from Bandar-e-Abbas to Minab (N 27° 17 , E 56° 28 ) at an elevation of 8 m below sea level. It was syntopic with Acanthodactylus blanfordi and Bunopus tuberculatus.
