VARIETIES OF THE WALL-LIZARD, 139 
The female from Véslau is remarkable in having a paired series of dark vertebral 
spots. Males with the throat and belly red, or cream-colour with rust-red spots ; 
black ventral spots, if present, confined to the two outer rows of shields, the outermost 
of which bears large pale blue spots. Females white beneath, with golden sheen ; 
small pale blue spots on outer row of ventral shields. 
It will be noticed that the number of scales across the body is generally less than 
in specimens from France and Belgium. In my previous contribution, particulars of 
8 specimens from Dinant, Belgium, showed the number to vary between 54 and 62. 
I have since obtained, with the kind assistance of a young friend, A. van Delft, 
numerous specimens from a quarry at Denée, not far from Dinant, and the tabulation 
of 12 specimens confirms this range of variation.

In three of these specimens the series of granules between the supraoculars and the 
supraciliaries is complete. In five the suture between the first and second supraciliaries 
is vertical, at least on one side. One specimen has five anterior upper labials on one 
side. In both sexes the lower parts were white or pale pink in life; blue spots on the 
sides large or small in males, small or absent in females, 
Baron G. Fejérvary, Jun.*, has published some remarks on specimens from the Rhone 
Valley in Canton Vaud, Switzerland, figuring the rostral scutellation of a specimen 
which agrees closely with one found near Randa, noticed on p. 353 (right-hand figure) 
of my first contribution, and he also records specimens with as many as 62 scales across 
the body. 
I have also further remarks to offer on the variations of this lizard in France.
