 covered with small smooth scales, intermixed with larger 

 keeled ones and with very large, multicarinate conical 

 tubercles. No dorsal crest. A row of longer erect scalesr 

 above the eye. Upper surface of the head covered with 

 conical tubercles. 



Phoxophrys tuherculata u. sp. 



Head tetrahedral with a sharp canthus rostralis ; above 

 the eye the scales of the canthus become large and erect, 

 giving rise to a sort of horn-like appendage , more than 

 half as high as the diameter of the eye. The head is cove- 

 red with tubercular scales and carinate tubercles , the inter- 

 orbital space is deeply concave. At the back of the head 

 a row of scales larger than the surrounding ones forms a 

 transverse bridge between the posterior borders of the eyes, 

 at the same time limiting the interorbital concavity from 

 behind. Ten upper labial shields and as many lower labi- 

 als. Larger multicarinate tubercles behind the eye and at 



1) <J>o|o?, pointed; o^pvi;, eyebrow.
