Psammobates oculiferus is poorly known despite its wide distribution in southern Africa (Branch, W.R., 1998: Field Guide to Snakes and Other Reptiles of Southern Africa. Struik Publishers, Cape Town). Its range includes the northern three quarters of Namibia as far south as Mariental, but excludes the arid western Namib Desert region (Griffin, M., 2003: Annotated Checklist and Provisional National Conservation Status of Namibian Reptiles. Namibia Scientific Society, Windhoek, Namibia.). Research conducted of three individuals ( 1 Male and 2 female) from the Windhoek area, central Namibia has resulted in the following information regarding lying-up placed selected.
