On the request of Professor F. A. Smitt I have examined 

 the Reptiles and Batrachians collected by the Swedish Expe- 

 dition to Tierra del Fnego 1895—1896. The collection, vvhich 

 embraces 2 species of snakes, 8 species of lizards, 1 species of 

 batrachians, and two tadpoles, is preserved at present in the 

 Royal Museum in Stockholm. Most specimens are collected on 

 the east coast of Patagonia. Two species of lizards are from 

 Tierra del Fuego. 



All of these are species previously known, except one of 

 the snakes, which I consider to be a new species.
