List of Ceylon Reptiles. 



I am indebted to Dr. Grray of the British Museum for a 

 more complete enumeration of the reptiles of Ceylon than is 

 to be found in Dr. Kelaart's published lists ; but many of those 

 new to Europeans have been carefully described by the latter 

 gentleman in his Prodromus Fcmnw Zeylaiiicce and its appen- 

 dices, as well as in the 13th vol. Magaz. Nat. Hist. (1854).
