SYSTEMATIC ACCOUNT OF THE SPECIES. 151 
separate the supraocular granules from those surrounding the eye; loreal rows, 
five; subocular semicircles of strongly keeled scales broadly in contact with 
the supralabials; six or seven smooth supralabials, suture between fourth and 
fifth under the centre of the eye; temporals very finely granular in the centre 
with a very feebly indicated supratemporal line; about eight dorsal rows of 
seales distinctly enlarged, of these the median four rows with a moderately 
well-developed keel, two median rows slightly imbricate, others juxtaposed; 
rest of back and sides covered with minute granules; ventral scales as large 
as or a little larger than the largest middorsals, slightly imbricate and feebly 
but evidently keeled; scales of forelimbs imbricate either uni- or pluricarinate, 
on hind limbs all imbricate seales with two or three keels; scales on upper surface 
of digits pluricarinate; digits of hind limbs very long and slender, the expansion 
very feebly developed; about twenty-seven lamellae under phalanges II and 
III of fourth toe; tail very long, much more than twice as long as head and 
body, slightly compressed at the base, covered with subequal keeled scales, 
with scarcely any indication whatever of verticils, with but the very faintest 
indication of a serrated edge above; postanal plates very slightly developed ( 9 ?).

So far on none of our excursions have we ever been able to find this fine 
little Anolis, hence we know of it only from the literature. Cope described 
it (Proce. Acad. nat. sci. Phila., 1861, p. 211) from the famous Cafetal “Monte 
Verde” in the Sierra de Yateras of Guantanamo. The types were secured by 
Charles Wright and were catalogued 5,737 in the Smithsonian collection; they 
have apparently been lost. Gundlach found specimens, some of which he sent 
to Peters and one of these was figured by Bocourt (Miss. sci. Mex., pl. 16, fig. 
29). It is interesting to compare a facsimile of his figure with one of Mr. 
Fischer’s excellent drawings, the latter made from one of three specimens which 
Peters sent in exchange to the British Museum. For the opportunity of ex-
