Abstract Lizards have significant roles in life cycle and are related to humans either directly or indirectly. Identifying of the fauna of a region is the most necessary and the most significant biological and fundamental research in it. Mazandaran Province has diverse biological conditions because of its geographical location and special ecological conditions, the proximity of the sea to the mountains and diverse vegetation. Samples were collected in Mazandaran and bio-systematic study of Cyrtopodionscabrum was manipulated there as well from March, 2012 to June, 2013. The samples were collected by hands or sticks and after being photographed, they were fixed in formalin 4% and ethyl alcohol 75% and were identified using valid sources. Seven samples belonging toCyrtopodionscabrum, including 2 female and 5 male samples, were collected in the current study. Then, morphologic, morphometric and meristic characteristics of the samples were studied. Cyrtopodion scabrum has been collected and reported for the first time in Mazandaran Province in this study.
