dorsal light stripe was vinaceous-cinnamon, while the head, nuchal 

 region, and shoulders were dovc-hrown. The sides of the hody, as 

 well as the liml)s, were drah. The ventral surfaces were palely irides- 

 cent with hlue, pink and green. In no. 75762, only the scales on the 

 edge of the dewlap were chrome-yellow, the other gular scales heing 

 clove-hrown like the gular skin itself.

ANOLIS TERRAE-ALTAE Barbour 



Anolis tcrrac-allac Barbour, Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, vol. 28, p. 76, 1915. 



U.S.N.M. nos. 78998-79001 from St. George (= Cabritt Island), 

 Saints Islands, August i, 1929; nos. 79002-3 from Mount Chameau, 

 St. Peter, same date. A note with the St. George specimens states the 

 dewlap was pale orange in life. 



Since not all scientific collections may have examples of Anolis 

 leachii (=ferrcus) from Gaudeloupe, to which Barbour compared the 

 Saints Island A. terrae-altae in his original diagnosis, it will not be 

 amiss to include here a more detailed description of one of the six 

 specimens of A. terrae-altae listed above : 



An adult male, U.S.N.M. no. 79002, has the top of the head with two 

 low diverging frontal ridges, disappearing before they reach the level 

 of the nostrils and enclosing a feebly pronounced frontal hollow ; head 

 scales smooth, only the scales of the supraorbital disk showing faint 

 keels ; the distance between the anterior parts of the orbits very 

 nearly equalling that from the orbit to the end of the snout ; rostral 

 low, slightly narrower than the mentals ; four scales in a row between 

 the narrow scales bordering each nostril above, the median pair some- 

 what enlarged ; the median snout scales immediately behind these 

 internasal scales in a single series, transversely enlarged ; supraorbital 

 semicircles composed of six or seven enlarged scales, the third the 

 largest, the fourth and fifth separated from their fellows by a single 

 row of small scales; occipital about two-thirds the size of the ear 

 opening, separated from the supraorbital semicircles by two rows of 

 scales rather irregular in shape ; those posterior to the occipital more 

 regular in shape and smaller than those in front of it ; supraorbital 

 disk composed of five polygonal, faintly keeled scales, narrowly
