A single specimen from the Kadamaian River, Kina Balu, 

 2100 feet, preserved in the Raffles Museum. 



This species connects Geclco with Ptychozoon and stands 

 in the same relation to the latter genus as Hemidactylus 

 platyurus (\oQB to Mimetozoon. The lesser development of the 

 parachute-like lateral membrane and the absence of differen- 

 tiation in the lepidosis of that membrane justify its allocation 

 to the genus Gecko rather than to Pfychozoon. 



Stoliczhaia horneensis. 



Rostral moderately large, triangular, not visible from 

 above ; a pair of very narrow intern asals ; a pair of large 

 pra?frontals, separated from the frontal and supraoculars by 

 a series of small scales ; frontal a little broader than long, a 

 little shorter than the parietals ; supraocular very small ; 

 eye very prominent, witli vertically subelliptic pupil, sur- 

 rounded by the supraocular, two or three prjeoculars, the 

 fifth labial, and 7 or 8 small scales ; nostril very large ; loreal 

 much longer than deep ; ten upper labials, the two last 

 longest; temporals small, scale-like; a single pair of small 

 chin- shields, in contact with three lower labials. Scales in 

 30 rows, those on the vertebral region and those adjacent to 

 the ventral shields largest, elongate rhomboidal, juxtaposed, 

 the others very small and se])arated by naked skin. Ventrals 

 210; anal entire; subcaudals 124. Rufous, with large 

 blackish spots, at least as large as the space between them, 

 disposed more or less regularly in three longitudinal series j 

 brown beneath, the shields edged with yellowish.
