REPTILES AND BATRACHIANS FROM PENINSULAR SIAM. 153 



number of specimens obtained at Bangnara, it was apparently not un- 

 common there. The caudal crest is well marked in most of the males, 

 but in all the females it is absent. Nearly all the specimens have some 

 scattered patches of enlarged scales upon the dorsal surface of the 

 body, the most constant one being a large patch at the base of the tail. 

 In the individual from Nakon Sitamarat, these patches were extremely 

 numerous, and occupied nearly half the dorsal surface of tli-e body. 



Dimensions of the largest, a cT from Bangnara ; head and body, 

 110 mm., tail 175. 



Colouration of the Bangnara specimens (in spirits) ; light grey 

 above, with small scattered spots of intense black ; some with faint 

 but regular wavy transverse markings. 



19. Dr.\co punctatus Bouleng. 



A single d specimen of this little known Draco was obtained at 

 Bangnara, Patani. It agrees entirely with the description. The 

 specimen was obtained almost at sea level, at the foot of some low hills 

 to the west of B^agiiara. The other two specimens obtained in the 

 Peninsula, were both found at a considerable altitude. 



20. Uk.\co blanfordi Bouleng. 



Khao Wang Hip (upper and lower camps), Nakon Sitamarat, 

 5 d, 1 $. 



The specimens obtained upon this hill were unusually fine. 

 The largest, a d, measured 140 mm. from snout to vent, with a tail of 

 245 mm. The single $ was considerably smaller ; snout to vent 115, 

 tail 190. 



21. Draco formosus Bouleng. 



Tanjong Mas and Bangnara, Patani, 10 c^, 1 2 ; Khao Wang 

 Hip, Nakon Sitamarat, 1 <S , 4> 2 ; Maprit, Patiyu, 14 6,2 2. 



On Khao Wang Hip they were obtained at all elevations. In 

 all the specimens from that locality the black bars upon the parachute 

 are much more distinct than in those obtained from the other three 

 localities. 



It is stated in the description of this species that the throat of 

 the female is dark green. I have not had the opportunity of examin- 

 ing any of my specimens during life, but have been able to see them, 

 in most cases, soon after their immersion in spirit, and whilst the
