eye to the base of the cauda; there is an large ocel- 

 lated spot ; the obhqiie raye below the eye some- 

 Avhat discoloured (faded) ; two large distinctly ocel- 

 lated spots between the 12th. and 28th. spines.

Another specimen, 185 mm. Porto Gachoeiro, 

 Rio Doce, Est. Espirito îSanto, otherwise exactly 

 like the type, differs only by the second dorsal spot 

 being not as well defined ; the black spot is some- 

 what vanished and the white ocellus around is 

 brocken in several spots, instead of being sharply 

 defined. This species is closely allied to Or. dor- 

 socellata Hasem., differing only by the larger num- 

 ber of scales (77 instead of 60-62), the extension 

 of the maxillary and by liaving 2 oceliated dorsal 

 spots. By a futui^e revision this species may be 

 considered as a northern subspecies of C. dorsocei- 

 lata Hasem. which hitherto has only been found 

 in the rio Parahyba, wherefrom the Museu Paulista 

 received also some specimens collected by M. E. 

 Garbe (240-300 mm.,* Lagoa Feia, Est. Rio de Ja- 

 neiro). Mr. Hasemann's n. 2722 from Santarém is 

 surely not the same species ; it is impossible to 

 identify correctly that single specimen which measu- 

 res only 4 cm.
