According to Qensel there were in 1802 three specimens 

 of this lizard, one of wliich should belong to Museum Schlos- 

 seri, and probably come to the Royai Museum among the col- 

 lections of de Geer. In a foot-note on p. 131 in K. Vet. 

 Akad. Handl. 1785 we find also that de Greer bonght Schlos- 

 ser's type-specimen for the description of Lacerta amhoinen- 

 sis in Epistolce Amsterdami (Ep. de Lacerta amboinensi), which 

 declares that it is to be found in the R. Museum, there we 

 find at present three specimens of this lizard from the old 

 collections, of which one is easy to distinguish as Schlosser's 

 type-specimen, although the original label is completely 

 bleached.
