About Oplurus grandidieri (Mocquard, 1900)
Oplurus grandidieri, commonly known as Grandidier's Madagascar swift, has a distinct light stripe running down the center of its back. This species is endemic to the island of Madagascar, where it has been recorded at multiple locations across the southern central highlands. Its preferred natural habitat consists of rocky terrain located within forest, shrubland, or grassland environments. Oplurus grandidieri reproduces by laying eggs, meaning it is oviparous.
