 in having the scales on the lower portion of the tail small, strongly 

 keeled, sharply pointed behind, imbricate, and not arranged in 

 regular verticils. Dorsal tubercles about equal to the small ear- 

 opening in size, very little, if at aU, longer than broad, and arranged

 longitudinal rows. The fore limb reaches the tip of the snout 

 and the hind limb the shoulder. Eight to ten upper and seven

Allied to the preceding species. Body rather elongate. Limbs 

 long, the fore limb extending to the end of the snout, the hind limb 

 extending some distance in front of the shoulder. Surface of the 

 head granular, granules nearly uniform ; nostril between the 

 rostral, the first labial, and two nasals, which are rather swolleUo 

 Dorsal tubercles triangular, nearly as large as the small ear-opening ; 

 they are not arranged in regular rows, but about twelve may be 

 counted across the back. About twenty-five larger scales across 

 the belly. Prseanal pores about six, in a V-shaped line. Tail thin, 

 very regularly attenuate, verticiUate, covered with trapezoidal or 

 Bubtrapezoidal keeled scales, the posterior row of each ring larger,
