IV. Reptilia and Amphibia. By Thomas Barbour. 



A considerable number of reptiles and amphibians were taken by 

 Mr. Brown on San Miguel and Saboga Islands. He collected also in 

 the vicinity of the city of Panama, and the specimens obtained in all of 

 these localities are included in this paper. The fauna of the islands is 

 not fundamentally different from that of the mainland, whence all the 

 species on the islands appear to have been derived. A few differentiated 

 forms are, however, recognizable.
