		Diploglossus millepunctatus is restricted to Malpelo Island, located off the coast of Colombia.
		In addition, the herpetology department at the Nashville Zoo recently acquired a small group of Diploglossus monotropis, which will be utilized to develop captive husbandry techniques that may be utilized in the future for the more highly threatened Diploglossus millepunctatus.
		Funding sources are being identified to support researchers in the Dominican Republic to conduct surveys for the endangered galliwasps in that country in 2003 and 2004.

		Recognition of Diploglossus versus Celestus remains a matter of controversy.
		Previous authors have argued that the condition of the claws and terminal sheaths of the digits, prefrontal scales, and osteoderms serve to distinguish these 2 genera.
		The nature of the claw sheaths, particularly, have been used by recent authors to distinguish Celestus (claws exposed) and Diploglossus (claws sheathed), but the extent to which the terminal dorsal scale(s) on the digits cover the claws can be negligible, partial, to almost complete depending on species, as demonstrated by Savage and Lips (1993).

	Celestus scansorius (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Savage and Lips (1994) reviewed the characteristics and status of the diploglossine genera Celestus and Diploglossus and demonstrated that the two genera were readily distinguishable from each other on the basis of claw structure.
		In Celestus, the claws are exposed for most of their length, whereas in Diploglossus the claws are enclosed within a scaly sheath.

		Surveying the reptile fauna of a Puerto Rican moist forest, one is struck with the similarity to forests of the three other major Greater Antillean islands - Cuba, Jamaica, and Hispaniola.
		Forests on each of the four major islands have an Anolis fauna, a Sphaerodactylus fauna (Gekkonidae), and at least one semifossorial anguid (Diploglossus or Celestus).
		There are one or more blind snakes of the genus Typhlops, a large boa (Epicrates), at least one moderate to large racerlike xenodontine colubrid snake (Alsophis), and at least one small xenodontine colubrid (Arrhyton or Antillophhis).

		The captive program will be considered a success when healthy F2 offspring are produced, hopefully in 2003 or 2004, at which time a studbook will be initiated for the group.
		In addition, the herpetology department at Nashville Zoo recently acquired a small group of Diploglossus monotropis, which will be utilized to develop captive husbandry techniques that may be utilized in the future for the more highly threatened D.
