30. Amphisbaena sp. 



The collection includes a specimen of this genus collected by Hase- 

 man at Barra de Penedo, Alag6as, Brazil (C. M. No. 1046). It was 

 found dead under the bark of a coconut tree, and is naturally not in the 

 best state of preservation, some characters being difficult to distin- 

 guish. It closely resembles A. steindachneri Strauch, differing prin- 

 cipally in the greater number of segments around the body, which is 

 forty-six. There are two hundred and forty-nine annuli on the body 

 and twenty-seven on the tail. The color is yellowish brown.
