Leiolepis ngovantrii is a species of lizard that is all-female, reproducing clonally. The species is named after Vietnamese herpetologist Ngo Van Tri of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, and is believed to be related to two other Vietnamese lizard species, Leiolepis guttata and Leiolepis guentherpetersi. This species is one of four unisexual Leiolepis agamospecies. However, the genus Leiolepis has five different bisexual species. This unisexuality is possibly due to mutation and hybridization.
Rhombophryne guentherpetersi is a frog of the family Microhylidae. It is endemic to northern Madagascar and known from the Tsaratanana Massif. It inhabits high-elevation forest and, perhaps, montane grassland, at elevations of 2,000–2,600 m (6,600–8,500 ft) above sea level. It is a rare species that suffers from habitat loss and degradation. It occurs in the Tsaratanana Reserve but the reserve borders are ambiguous, complicating management of the area.
