Myriopholis cairi (Duméril and Bibron, 1844:323) View in CoL
Reported questionably form eastern Libya, without specific locality by Sochurek (1979). Although it is conceivable that L. cairi occurs in Libya, most records are no closer than the Nile Valley of Egypt or central Niger (Sindaco et al. 2013). However, Broadley et al. (2014) reported it from the Siwa Oasis of Egypt (BMNH 1938.8.4. 50–51), only about 50 km from the Libyan bor- der, although other authors have assigned snakes from this region to M. macrorhyncha (e.g., Geniez 2015).
