Eleutherodactylus hinghaiiii Stejneger ^ is synonymoHs with this 

 ppecies. We have examined two paratypes (Mus, Comp. Zool. Nos. 

 4173-4) of E. hinghami and have come to the conclusion that they 

 represent the young of G. holimana. The foot of this species of 

 Gastrotheca has a very short web, but the terminal phalanges are 

 nevertheless claw-shaped. 



Class REPTILIA. 

 Suborder SAURIA. 



6. STENOCERCUS TORQUATUS Boclenger. 



One adult specimen from Santa Ana (U.S.N.M. No. 60725) ; three 

 adults (U.S.N.M. Nos. 60731-3) from the Cosireni River, 4,000 feet 

 altitude; six adults and one young (U.S.N.M. Nos. 60710-13 and 

 60736-8) from San Fernando, 4,500 feet, October, 1915. 



The specimen from Santa Ana agrees well with Boulenger's de- 

 scription of the squamation, but differs in coloration and shows only 

 a trace of the ante-humeral band. The three specimens from the 

 Cosireni River, however, have this marking better developed. 



7. LIOLAEMUS ANNECTENS Boulenger. 



One adult from the Cosireni River, 4,000 feet altitude, September 

 5, 1915 (U.S.N.M. No. 60709). 



A single specimen is apparently referable to this species and not 

 to L. multifomiis Cope, if the two are really distinct. 



8. LEIOCEPHALUS ERVINGI (Stejneger). 



A single adult from Machu Picchu, October 30, 1915 (U.S.N.M. 

 No. 60742). 



Stejneger^ has described what he called Stenocercus ervingi from 

 a single very young example. This specimen was only 84 nun. in 

 total length, and the generic characters were difficult or impossible 

 to discern. We have before us a single adult (U.S.N.M. No. 60742), 

 which we believe to be a Leiocephalus^ owing to the presence of ab- 

 dominal ribs and of general Le'wcephalus squamation. It is beyond 

 doubt the adult of Stejneger's species. His type came from Huad- 

 quifia, in the Urubamba Valley, only a few miles from Machu Picchu. 

 To supplement Stejneger's description a diagnosis of this adult 

 specimen is added: 



Upper head scales of but moderate size, distinctly rugose; nostril supei-o- 

 lateral; supranasal separated from the nostril by a row of scales; two rows 

 of distinctly enlarjred supra-oculars, separated from the supra-orbital zone series
