Philipp Lehrs (1881–1956) was a German herpetologist who specialized in the lizard family Lacertidae. During his career, he was associated with the Zoologischen Forschungsinstitut (Zoological Research Institute) and Forschungsmuseum Alexander Koenig (Alexander Koenig Research Museum) in Bonn.[1]
Taxa
editLehrs is the binomial author of the following species/subspecies of lizards:
- Gallotia caesaris (Boettger's lizard), (1914). Named in honor of German malacologist Caesar Rudolf Boettger.[2]
- Parvilacerta fraasi (Fraas's lizard), (1910).[3]
- Lacerta ionica (1902), synonymous with Podarcis tauricus (Crimean wall lizard). The name Podarcis tauricus ionicus is regarded as a subspecies.[4]
