Comments.
This species is rare in the Mykolaiv Oblast. It was recently recorded from Kinburn Spit ( Mykytynets et al. 2019). We confirmed the finding of an individual near Mykolaiv (Zaichevsk village) reported in iNaturalist (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/14612688). We found the snake in a steppe area with small shrubs (Fig. 10A View Figure 10 ). The data of Sillero et al. (2014) (36TUT3 and 36TVS1) reflect historic records of populations that are likely no longer present. In 1979, this species was recorded on rocky banks of the Southern Bug River in the areas of the South Ukrainian Nuclear Power Plant ( Tsvelyh 1981), but recent surveys ( Kotenko et al. 2008, this study) have failed to detect it despite intensive investigation.
