Records of the Albany Museum, 4:303; Plate XXVII, Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 .
Current name: Bradypodion kentanicum ( Hewitt, 1935)
Syntypes (2): PEM R16100–1 View Materials (formerly AMG 4538 View Materials ) ; Kentani, Eastern Cape Province, South Africa; Miss O. Abernethy, 7 March 1922 .
Remarks. Collected by Miss O. Abernethy and presented to AMG by Miss Alice Pegler ( Tilbury 2010). The description refers to two immature males as the types. Both specimens in very poor condition and dehydrated (presumably dried out at some stage). A dorsal photo of the head of one of the type specimens is illustrated on Plate XXVII figure 3. PEM R16100 is most similar to the figure.
