The State of Mexico has a unique combination of geographic characteristics and topography that promotes a high biodiversity. Unfortunately, continued human population growth of the metropolitan areas of Mexico City and Toluca have degraded the environment of the State of Mexico, which threatened its wildlife. An updated checklist of the amphibians and reptiles of the State of Mexico is provided and their conservation status summarized. The State of Mexico has 49 species of amphibians and 101 species of reptiles. The majority of the amphibians (73.5%) and reptiles (70.3%) found in the State of Mexico are endemic to Mexico. Of the amphibian and reptile species in the State of Mexico, 20.1% are IUCN listed (i.e., Vulnerable, Near Threatened, or Endangered), 18.4% are placed in a protected category by SEMARNAT (excluding NL and Pr, this last category is equivalent to the LC category of IUCN), and 34.9% are categorized as high risk by the EVS. The importance of forested habitats for the protected amphibians and reptiles in the State of Mexico suggest that management of these habitats to maintain or expand them needs to be considered.

墨西哥州两栖动物和爬行动物保护清单,与邻近各州进行比较。

墨西哥州拥有独特的地理特征和地形组合,促进了高度的生物多样性。不幸的是,墨西哥城和托卢卡大都市区人口的持续增长导致墨西哥州的环境恶化,从而威胁到其野生动物。提供了墨西哥州两栖动物和爬行动物的更新清单并总结了它们的保护状况。墨西哥州有 49 种两栖动物和 101 种爬行动物。墨西哥州发现的大多数两栖动物(73.5%)和爬行动物(70.3%)是墨西哥特有的。在墨西哥州的两栖动物和爬行动物物种中,20.1% 被 IUCN 列入(即易危、近危或濒危),18.4% 被 SEMARNAT 置于受保护类别(不包括 NL 和 Pr,最后一个类别相当于属于 IUCN 的 LC 类别),34.9% 被 EVS 归类为高风险。墨西哥州森林栖息地对于受保护的两栖动物和爬行动物的重要性表明,需要考虑对这些栖息地进行管理以维持或扩大它们。
