Abstract

The present report provides knowledge about the diversity of Saurian fauna in the Buldhana district of the Indian state of Maharashtra as a model geographic area to promote conservation management. The presented study is based on the field work carried out in the study sites during February 2014 to January 2015. The study revealed the presence of 14 Saurian species belonging to 5 families dominated by Gekkonidae (43.05%), Scincidae (29.15%), Agamidae (21.35%), Varanidae (6.1%), and Chamaeleonidae (0.35%). The relative dominance of species varied with different months, apparently indicating that the Buldhana district has a healthy environmental and demographic setup that accommodates rich Saurian diversity
