    The lizard Alopoglossus vallensis (family Alopoglossidae) has been historically recorded in the Cauca River Valley and the western Andes (departments of Cauca and Valle del Cauca) of Colombia. Based on a review of specimens in biological collections, we report northern and southern range extensions for the species, including the first records from the departments of Antioquia, Caldas, Quindio, and Risaralda in the Central Andes of Colombia. These new records also expand the known elevational range and climatic tolerances of A. vallensis.
