Tom, do you remember how the Somali people called Uromastyx princeps, U. macfaydeni, and Xenagama, or they just don't separate them?

Hi I had not seen your post earlier. Its a pretty old thread by now. I don't think they have different names as far as I know they called Xenagama = Asherbarre which also was what they called the Uromastyx. May I ask why you are asking this ? :biggrin: Best regards.

Hi,
Just hoped you would read my post, but thanks a lot for your reeply. I'm really interested in the "native" names of the animals, but I didn't find anything about these species after a long search. Anyway I'm planning to travel to north Somalia within one or two years,-as my wife let me to go :? -but seems quite tricky.
Thanks again for your reply,
Lenard
