Colour in alcohol. Eich brownish-black above with three 

 salmon-pink longitudinal lines lost on the posterior part of the 

 body ; the vertebral one commencing from one to two centi- 

 metres behind the yellowish chevron-shaped collar, the outer 

 ones on the inner two-thirds of scale-row 3 and outer one-third 

 of row 4. First or first and second scale-rows salmon-pink 

 merging into buff on the ventrals. Eye bordered with black 

 this colour extending downwards as a broad bar on to the in- 

 fralabials. 



These markings correspond very closely with those given by 

 Boulenger and differ distinctly from tliose given by De Eooy 

 (loc. cit. sup.) .

*Stejneger has recently shown that the generic name of Ablabea is 

 untenable. (Medd. Zool. Mus. Kristiana, 1912, No. 2, p. 2.)
