Stejneger also refers to its presence there. I have seen no 

 snakes from any of the Calif ornian islands. 



San Clemente Island. 

 Two species of lizards are known from this island. 



1. Uta stansburiana Baird & Girard. 



Uta stansburiana Townsend, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus. v. 13, 1890, p. 144; 

 Van Denburgh, Occas. Papers, Cal. Acad. Sci. 5, 1897, p. 68; 

 Cope, Report, U. S. Nat. Mus. 1898 (1900), pp. 310, 311. 



Two specimens were taken on San Clemente Island by 

 C. H. Townsend in 1889. Mr. A. W. Anthony and 

 Dr. E. A. Mearns also found the species there and sent 

 specimens to the National Museum. 



I have examined those collected by Mr. Townsend and 

 Mr. Anthony and six specimens sent me by Mr. Joseph 

 Grinnell, of which three are now in the collection of the 

 Academy, and am unable to distinguish the island lizards 

 from the form originally described by Baird and Girard. 

 The femoral pores in three specimens are eleven, twelve, and 

 fourteen. 



2. Xantusia riversiana Cope.

This lizard was found on San Clemente by Mr. C. H. 

 Townsend. I have examined several specimens in the 

 collections of the University of California and the California 

 Academy of Sciences without finding differences between 

 them and specimens from San Nicolas and Santa Barbara 

 Islands. 



Los CORONADOS. 



I believe that only one reptile from Los Coronados is 

 represented in collections, but I am informed that several
