CAROLINA 



BY C. S. BKIMLEY 



The following list is a brief summary of tine records of 

 reptiles and amphibians from North .Carolina, contained in a 

 card catalogue of the same which I have kept for a number of 

 years. The records are drawn from the following sources : 



1. Published Records. (See Bibliography at end of this 

 paper. ) 



2. Specimens received by the State Museum at Raleigh, 

 for which I am indebted to my brother, H. H. Brimley, Curator. 



3. Specimens collected at various points in North Caro- 

 lina by Messrs F. Sherman, H. H. Brimley, Z. P. Metcalf and 

 myself. 



4. Specimens in the Biological Laboratory of the Univer- 

 sity of North Carolina, for the pleasure of examining which I 

 am indebted to Dr. W. C. Coker, and Dr. H. V. Wilson. 



Those species of which I have not seen North Carolina speci- 

 mens are marked with a star (*).
