enlarged, elongate, slightly keeled, imbricate about nine or ten equalling the 
distance from tip of snout to centre of eye; mental large, nearly same size as 
rostral; two large infralabials followed by a small one to below centre of eye; 
two small, squarish chin-shields behind mental, followed by flat smaller scales, 
which cover throat, enlarged but smooth on neck and chest, still larger on belly; 
limbs with smaller, keeled, imbricate scales; similar on upper surface of tail, 
but smooth below, enlarged irregular transverse plates below. 
~ Colour:— Gray flecked with brown spots, often with longitudinal dark 
marking on head and neck. Shoulders with or without a pair of white dots, 
which may or may not be ringed with darker to form a spectacle-like mark. 
There may be a faint similar mark on the sacral region. 
Dimensions:— Tip of snout to vent 28 mm. 
Vent to tip of tail 31 mm. 
Greatest width of head 5 mm. 
Tip of snout to ear 8 mm. 
Fore leg 8 mm. 
Hind leg 9.5 mm. 
Remarks:— This species is very closely related to notatus and is probably 
annectent between that species and macrolepis. It is widespread throughout 
San Domingo and Haiti.
