Trepanier and Murphy (2001 Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution 18(3): 327-334) determined that the population of lizards from the Mohawk Dunes (shown above), formerly assigned to Uma rufopunctata, represents an undescribed cryptic species which is not yet formally described. (5/06) We will continue to label this lizard as U. rufopunctata until the new species is described and accepted.
