Acanthodactylus ahmaddisii, also known commonly as the Jordanian fringe-fingered lizard, [2] is a species of lizard in the family Lacertidae.
The specific name, ahmaddisii, is in honor of Jordanian biologist Ahmad M. Disi. [4]
The natural habitats of A. ahmaddisii are subtropical or tropical dry shrubland. [1]
The Jordanian fringe-fingered lizard is threatened by habitat loss. [1]
A. ahmaddisii was first described in 2004 by Israeli herpetologist Yehudah L. Werner. [5]

The Be'er Sheva fringe-fingered lizard is a species of lizard in the family Lacertidae. It is a member of the subfamily Lacertinae, and the genus Acanthodactylus. Considered a separate species based on morphological distinction and isolated location, it shares a large portion of its genetics with Acanthodactylus pardalis in this genus. Many of the individual species in this genus are similar, but varying coloration explains why each species has been separated. Like all Acanthodactylus, A. beershebensis lays eggs, varying from three to seven eggs at a time. Adults vary in size from 17 to 20 cm, but can get much larger. The species is endemic to the loess scrublands of the Negev desert in Israel and the Palestinian Territories, a biodiversity hotspot.

Bosc's fringe-toed lizard or Bosk's [sic] fringe-fingered lizard is a species of lizard in the family Lacertidae. The species is endemic to North Africa and Western Asia. Three subspecies are sometimes recognised; A. boskianus boskianus, from Lower Egypt; A. boskianus euphraticus from Iraq; and A. boskianus asper from the rest of the range; however this division is unsatisfactory because each subspecies has much variation and the differences between them are not consistent.
