And descriptions of Lyciasalamandra arikani and Lyciasalamandra yehudahi;

These two species were discovered as new populations between the ranges of L.l.finikensis, and L.billae plus the recently described L.irfani. This seems to be comparable to distributions of various western plethodonts, in which numerous parapatric species are confined to pockets of suitable valley or mountain habitat in otherwise inhospitable and rugged terrain. Morphological and biogeographical comparisons were made, but biochemical data were limited to protein electrophoretic comparisons.
