 Nati(inal AIuseunL As to its occurrence on two of the Grenadines, I 

 (juote the field notes made by Dr. Bartsch : 



Au(/. 17, 1929. Qnafres Id., off Cheltenham On returning, the pilot told 



us that there were land tortoises here and an enquiry brought three to me on our 



return, large clumsy beasts, for which I paid 50 cents Aug. 18, 1939. 



West side of Baliceatix Id I was greatly surprised to find here many 



of the land tortoises. I turned over half a dozen large ones, hoping to find thoni 

 upon our downward trip, but we didn't. They had righted themselves and taken 

 shelter in the grass tufts or shrubbery. y\s it was, we carried five aboard.
