37 Chamaeleo chamaeleon View in CoL - Populations from Apulia show genetic affinities both with the North African populations (C. c. chamaeleon ) and with populations of two areas in the Middle East (C. c. recticrista Boettger 1980, and C. c. musae Steindachner 1901) (Basso et al., 2019). Specimens from Calabria are genetically similar to Tunisian ones (Andreone et al., 2016). Therefore we refrain from assessing the subspecific status of the introduced Italian populations.
