The __Eremias multiocellata-przewalskii__ species complex is a viviparous group in the genus __Eremias__, and a well-known representative of taxonomically complicated taxa. Within this complex, a new species – __E. dzungarica__ (Orlova et al., 2017) – has been described recently from western Mongolia and eastern Kazakhstan, with an apparent distribution gap in northwestern China. In this study, we used an integrative taxonomic framework to address whether __E. dzungarica__ indeed occurs in China. Thirty specimens previously classified as __E. multiocellata__ were collected in eastern Kazakhstan and the adjacent Altay region in China. The cytochrome __c__ oxidase I (__COI__) barcodes were sequenced and compiled with those from Orlova et al. (2017) and analyzed with the standard and diverse barcoding techniques. We detected an absence of a barcoding gap in this complex, which indicates potential cryptic species in __Eremias__ sp. 3 with high intraspecific diversity and multiple recently evolved species in Clade A. Both BIN and GMYC suggested an unrealistically large number of species (23 and 26, respectively), while ABGD, mPTP and BPP indicated a more conservative number of species (
