 teriorly, with strong curved parietal crest : the distance between 

 the commissure of the mouth and the extremity of the casque nearly

 reaching the extremity of the parietal crest, which is likewise 

 strongly tubercular ; no trace whatever of occipital lobes ; head- 

 scales very small, granular. Body finely granular ; a series of 

 isolated, knob-like tubercles along the vertebral line ; these tubercles 

 divided into several scales, the two largest of which, occupying the 

 upper surface, are conical and usually point obliquely upwards, right 

 and left respectively ; no gular nor ventral crest. jS"o tarsal process.
