Jablonowski's memoir was evidently issued whilst Uzel's 

 work was in the press, and is not noticed in the latter 

 author's bibliographical notes.

The maxillary palpns of agnesscp is undoubtedly 2-seg- 

 mented, thus briiioing the species into the genus BaHot/irips, 

 and I think there is no doubt that it should be referred to 

 B. dispar, though my examples are much larger than 

 described by Uzel. Having overlooked its generic position, 

 this accounts for my previous inability to recognize this nob 

 uncommon species, B. dispar, in Britain. 



I am indebted to Mr. Douglas Hood, who detected the 

 synonymy in working out the North-American species, for 

 bringing this to my notice.

XXXII. — Notes on Varanosaurus acutirostris, Broili. By 

 B. M. S. Watsox, M.Sc, Lecturer on Vertebrate Palicon- 

 tology, University College, London. 



One of the greatest treasures of the Palffiontological Museum 

 in Munich is the imperfect siceleton which forms the type 

 specimen of Varanosaurus acutirostris, Broili. 



Although Prof. Broili's description is both accurate and 

 excellent, the great additions to our knowledge of the skull- 

 structure of early types which have been made during the 

 last ten years allow of a moie critical examination of the 

 specimen, which I am enabled to offer owing to the great 

 kindness of Prof. Broili, through whose friendship I have 

 been able to examine the wiiole of the valuable series of 

 Permian reptiles belonging to the Alte Akadeinie at .Alunich. 



Amongst some undetermined fragments belonging to the 

 spccimcD, 1 was fortunate enough to recognize both articular
