MEMOIRS OF THE CARNEGIE MUSEUM 



Our Colombian series of L. lanshergi compels a modification of the formula of 

 the species to include a wider variability, as follows: 



Scales in 23-27 rows; anal single; gastrosteges 147-159; urosteges 28-36, as 

 shown by the accompanying table. 



• Mutilated.

Crotalus mutus Linn^us, Syst. Nat., Ed. XII, 1766, I, p. 373.
