Tlie species of this family, which have been described from the above 

 region, are as follows. I now place them in the genera of this family as 

 defined by Professor Peters in the Monatsberichte Akademie, Berlin, 1879, 

 p. 930 :

Barissia fimbriata Cope. Gerrhonotus auritus "Cope," Bocourt, Mis- 

 sion Scientif. Mexique, Reptiles, p. 337, PI. xxi, flg. 2, xxi A, 7, 7a, 

 not of Cope. 

 This species, which is handsomely figured by Bocourt, is not the species 

 I described as Oerrhonotus auritus, but is a new species of Barissia. It 

 agrees with the B. antaugea Cope in having three pairs of supranasal 

 plates instead of the two pairs of the other species. Its ear processes and 

 other characters distinguish it from B. antauges.
