CHECK-LIST OF THE BATRACHIANS AND REPTILES 

 OF LOUISIANA. 



BATRACHIA 



Order PEOTEIDA. 

 Family PROTEID.E. 



1. Necturus maculatus Rafinesqiie. Lake Siren; Froteus. 



This species seeins to occupy a very restricted area in 

 Louisiaua. I have collected it once only— iu Caldwell parish. 

 In the southern parts it does not seem to exist at all. 



Order TliACHYSTOMATA. 

 Family SIREXID.E. 



2. Siren lacertina Linn. Mitd Eel; Siren. 



I believe this species occurs only in middle and north- 

 western Louisiana. It has, thus far, never been reported 

 from the southern parishes. 



Family CRYPTOBRANCHID.E. 



3. Cryptobranchus allegheniensis Daud. HeUhender. 



I have never obtained this form in the state, but it has 

 been found in several of the northern parishes. Specimens
