a. four specimens. Nilgbiris. Dr. Jerdon. 



Labelled from " South India," but, according to Jerdon, found on the 

 Kilghiris only. 



Readily distinguished from Calotes by the nasal plate being pentagonal, 

 resting on the first or first and second upper labials, with a row of large plates 

 behind it above the labials. In Calotes the nasal pli^e is oval and separated 

 from the labials b}^ two rows of very narrow scales.

This species, as remarked by Gunther, seems to attain a liirger size in 

 Ceylon than elsewhere. I cannot help, however, suspecting that specimens 

 from all parts of India have been huddled into the two bottles labelled 

 " Ceyloii' and " Martahan," else, how comes it, there are no specimens in the 

 Museum of our commonest lizard from other parts ?
