30 L. G. ANDERSSON, CATAL. OF LINNEAN TYPE-SPECIMENS OF SNAKES. 
as well as the one below the eye. The two stripes on the 
sides are to some extent dissolved into spots, especially on 
the anterior and posterior parts of the body. 
There is a specimen of this snake from Mus. Drottn., 
evidently LINN2US'S type of Coluber Situla, which name thus 
has priority over Col. quadrilineatus Par. and over Col. 
leopardinus (BOoNAP.), if, in accordance with BouLENGER, we 
use this name for both forms.

Coluber Tyria. 
Described by Linnzus in Mus. Ad. Frid. II, p. 45. 
The type-specimen no longer exists in the museum. 
Coluber jugularis. 
Described by Linnaus in Mus. Ad. Frid. II, p. 45, Syst. Nat. Ed. X, 
p. 225, Ed. XII, p. 387. 
On account of the short and slightly characteristic de- 
scription of this type, given by LINN2aUsS the authors have 
not been able to identify it. I can now prove that LINNZUS'S 
Coluber jugularis is identical with Zamenis gemonensis (LAUR.) 
ScHREIB. (BouL. Cat. Sn. I, p. 395), wherefore its name ought 
to be Zamenis jugularis (L.). 
(For other synonyms see BouL. loc. cit.) 
Total length 1415 mm. Tail 370 mm. Sq. 19. vV. 203. +. 103. 
The specimen seems to be, according to BouLENGER, a 
melanotic form of var. asianus BorrtG. Thus the colour un- 
derneath is, except on the head, the throat, and the tail, 
rather lighter than on the upper side, where it is dark olive- 
brown, usually with one or more small light spots on the 
middle of each scale. 
LINNAUS states the number of the shields-at 195 + 102: 
that does not, however, quite correspond with this specimen. 
His description of the colour does not agree either with the 
specimen in its present state.- LINNZUS says, »sub capite albo 
subsanguineum»>, which is difficult to understand, as the spe- 
cimen is white (yellowish white) below the head only, and 
! The tail is slightly mutilated.
