On the Arabian Peninsula: Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Oman. In Africa it occurs only in southeastern Egypt east of the Nile and as far south as the 24th parallel. The type locality given is "Jebel Shárr, at an altitude of 4500 feet ... Midian" (Saudi Arabia, 1371 m altitude).[1] HabitatOccurs in rocky deserts, from sea level to altitudes as high as 2,500 m. Not found in sandy deserts.[3] TaxonomyIn order to maintain nomenclatural stability, Stimson (1974) proposed that E. coloratus be validated over E. froenata. The ICZN subsequently gave coloratus precedence over froenata by use of its plenary powers.[1] See also
