190 LIZARDS OF THE 



in the absence of rings of conical tubercles on the upper 

 part of the tail, and in the strjall number of the praeanal 

 pores (only 11 in our specimen). 



The lobes on both sides of the tail are not directed 

 perpendicularly on the tail but obliquely directed backwards. 

 Behind the nostril, which is pierced between the rostral, 

 the first labial and three rather large nasals, there are, 

 bordering the upper labials, three shields much larger than 

 the scales on the snout. As the end of the tail is regene- 

 rated, I am unable to say whether the tail was widened 

 at the end. In coloration our specimen quite agrees with 

 Brehm's illustration of P. homalocephalum (Edition 1892 

 on page 42) and shows, besides the two round spots on 

 the nape and large spots between the fore limbs, very dis- 

 tinct black bauds on the upper part of the tail. 



11. Draco cornutus Gthr. 



Four specimens collected by Dr. Nieuwenhuis: 3 from 

 the Upper Mahakkam, 1 from Long Bloe at the Upper 

 Mahakkam. 



12. Draco volans L. 



Four specimens from Sanggau on the Kapoeas river, 

 collected by Mr. Westeneng. 



13. Draco quinquefasciatus Gray. 



Three specimens collected by Dr. Nieuwenhuis: 2 (<ƒ and 

 9) from Bloe, 1 (<ƒ) from the Upper Mahakkam. 



14. Draco haematopogon Gray. 



Three specimens collected by Dr. Nieuwenhuis: 2 (<ƒ and 

 9) from the Upper Mahakkam, 1 (cf) from Bloe. 



* 15. Draco cristatellus Gthr. 



One specimen by Dr. Nieuwenhuis on the Upper Ma- 

 hakkam. I am not quite sure whether D. cristatellus Gthr. 

 ought to be regarded as a distinct species, differing from 

 D. fimbriatus. Our specimen agrees with Gunther's des- 

 cription in having a crested tail, the crest being formed 

 by rather distant, triangular, pointed scales, which scales 

 are by no means smaller than those reproduced in the 

 figure of D. cristatellus. Our specimen has on both sides,
