These two probably new lizards, here described, belong 

 to a collection of reptiles, sent to me for determination from 

 my friend Dr. L. A. Jägerskiöld, curator of the zoological 

 museum, Gothenburg. They are collected in New Caledonia 

 1887 by Mr. Th. Savbs and donated to the museum by Mr. 

 AuG. RöHSS, Gothenburg. 



Eurydactylns symmetricus n. sp. 



This Hzard agrees rather closely with Eurydactylus vieil- 

 lardÅ Bavay, as it is described by Boulenger in Proc. Zool. 

 Soc. 1883, p. 129 and by Sauvage in Bulh Soc. Philom. 7. 

 Ser., 3, p. 70; Paris 1878. In some cases, however, it differs 

 distinctly from this one. I beheve therefore that it must be 

 regarded as a new species. For the sake of completeness I 

 give a description of the form, although in many points this 

 diagnosis is only a repeating of the description of Eurydac- 

 tylus vieillardi.
