Mr. T'uro. Kormos Ph. D. has entrusted me with the desecriplion 
of the rich collection of herpelological material of the Royal Hunga- 
rian Geological Institution, orginating from the Pannonian and Pra- 
glacial (Interglacial?) periode. 
The material is in a relatively good condition, and originates 
from six localities: Polgärdi, Beremend, Püspökfürdö, Villäny (Nagy- 
harsänyhegy), Csarnöta and Brassö. 
All the remains are as old as Pra&glacial (Interglacial?) excepling 
those of Polgärdi, which occure intermixed with the remains of Hippa- 
rion fauna. 
The richest localities are Polgardi, Beremend and the Somlyöhegy 
near Püspökfürdö. 
From the localities mentioned I can enumerate ‘) species of Am- 
phibians, and 13 of Reptiles. 
Out of the Amphibians 2, from the Reptiles 5 species are new 
for science.
