singularly homogeneous squamation as well as the very peculiar colouration 
of the dewlap serve at once to distinguish it from any other species. Beside 
securing a small series near Cananova, a single adult male was found out on the 
Farallones of Cabo Maisi itself. We know nothing of its wider distribution 
nor of its habits.

Top of head with two very short parallel ridges; separated by two or three 
rows of keeled scales; head-scales all sharply keeled; about eight scales in a row 
between the nostrils; supraocular semicircles separated by a partly single, 
partly double row of keeled scales; occipital irregular almost round, much 
smaller than ear opening, separated from the semicircles by two or three small 
seales; canthus rostralis distinct of three or four elongate scales, continued 
backward as a superciliary crest to over centre of eye; loreal rows, four; sub- 
ocular semicircles short, composed of a few long, keeled scales, broadly in con-

granular, the central group very minute, a series of slightly enlarged scale 
forming a faintly defined supratemporal line; scales of back and sides granular, 
the two middorsal rows slightly enlarged; ventrals large, round, smooth, and 
strongly imbricate; scales of anterior aspect of fore and hind limb enlarged,

phalanges II and III of fourth toe; tail very strongly compressed, surmounted 
by a well-developed fin, the whole tail and fin segmented into verticils, each 
limiting row separated by seven scales on side of tail (where the limiting rows 
are faintly defined) and separated on the fin by five rows where the limiting
