Ghamceleon longicauda^ sp. n. (PI. XIV.) 



Occiput rather raised in the middle, a distinct crest dividing 

 the crown into two halves. No occipital lobes. The supra- 

 orbital margin continued as a prominent ridge along the 

 canthus rostralis, slightly projecting in front of the snout. 

 Scutes covering the head rather large. Body coarsely tuber- 

 cular, larger tubercles being interspersed among the small 

 ones. A distinct gular row of pointed tubercles passes 

 without interruption into the ventral series. A dorsal crest 

 of short, pointed, conical tubercles. No tarsal spur. Greenish ; 

 a rather broad, whitish, black-edged band runs from the 

 tympanic region above the shoulder along the side of the 

 body. 



An adult male is nearly 15 inches long, the tail measuring 

 8 inches. 



Anorontsangana (N.W. Madagascar). 



Hoplurus sehce (Fitz.) occurs in the same locality. 



A small collection made at Senbendrana contained Rana 

 hiporus (Blgr.), Polypedates Crossleiji (Ptrs.), Rhacophorus 

 luteus (Blgr.), Gecholepis maculata (Ptrs.), and what appears 

 to be an undescribed species of Lygodactylus. 



Lygodactylus miops^ sp. n. 



This species is allied to Lygodactylus madagascariensis^ 

 differing by the larger size of its eye. 



Three small scales between the nasals ; two large scales 

 behind the chin-shield. Nostril above the suture between 

 the rostral and first labial. Eye large, two tiiirds of the 

 length of the snout, the snout being equal in length to the 

 distance between the eye and the ear-opening. Upper labials 

 seven. Skin finely granular. Tail below with imbricate 

 scales, but without a median series of larger and broader 

 scales. A brownish-yellow longitudinal band starts from
