ALLIED TO LACERTA MUEALIS, 39 



those of any of the patterns known in L. (u/i/is. they can be easily traced back to the 



more primitive tyj)e represented by the young alluded to above. They agree very 

 well with those of various striated forms of the i. inuralis group. 



When describing X. parvre nearly thirty years ago, from a single female specimen, 

 I regarded the species as nearly allied to L. aijilis and L. viridis. In this view 1 am 



confirmed by furtlier study of a better material, but at the same time I consider 



L. parm as a link between L. (KjiUs and L. brandtii, so perfect that it is difficult to 

 decide whether it is more closely related to the one than to the other.
