These 14 species comprise eight lizards, three snakes, and three turtles. Only one of these species is a country endemic. Their EVS values range from 14 to 18.

Of the 183 native herpetofaunal species of herpetofauna in Chihuahua, 62 are endemics (33.9%) and 64 (35.0%) are high EVS species. Their numbers in the nine physiographic regions we recognize range from 12 to 49. These allocations are important for developing management plans in the protected areas of Chihuahua, as we discuss in the following section
