Hello arano
Its habitat is mostly tropical thorn forest, extending into tropical deciduous forest. Around Colima, where it is particularly plentiful, the land is mostly treeless with short grass, scattered mesquite, acacias, thorny bushes and many large cacti. In the lowlands, most specimens are found crossing roads at night.1
