© Biharean Biologist, Oradea, Romania, 2015.We report new locality records of Eirenis (Pediophis) eiselti, E. (P.) punctatolineatus, Pseudocyclophis persicus and Platyceps collaris in eastern Anatolia, Turkey. We recorded Pseudocyclophis persicus and Platyceps collaris in Erzincan province for the first time, representing a considerable range extension for these species. Additionally, we reported E. (P.) eiselti and E. (P.) punctatolineatus in Tunceli Province for the first time and extended their distribution.
