Additional data: Parthenogenetic "species". Synonymy partly after KHALIKOV & ANANJEVA (pers. comm.). Petrosyan et al. (2003) show that the populations of D. dahli examined have genetically heterogeneous structure (at the level of between-population differences) whereas the populations of D. armeniaca have genetically homogeneous structure characteristic of one clone. Lacerta armeniaca originated from interspecific hybridization of L. valentini and L. mixta (Darevsky, 1992; MacCulloch et al., 1995).
