I have besides examined, in the Lyons Museum, a series of 40 

 specimens of the var. syriacus, bearing the erroneous indication : 

 " Cochinchine, don du Dr. Morice." They were associated with 

 examples of Lacerta leevis and Chalcides ocellatns, and no doubt came 

 from Syria. In 33 of these specimens the frontonasal is divided into 

 two by a longitudinal cleft, in 2 it is divided into three ; in 2 of them 

 the subocular borders the mouth.
