recognize as belonging to this species — a still longer and 

 slenderer one than G. tessellatus, and having the tail of ex- 

 cessive length, but agreeing with the latter in the arrangement 

 of the supranasals.

The type of this species in the British Museu.m is in a rather 

 bad state. It agrees with the lengthened description of G. 

 multifasciatus in the ' Erpetologie Gen^rale.' Two pairs of 

 narrow supranasals, without accessory plate between. Tail 

 more than twice the length of body and head together ; fifty 

 transverse series of scales from occiput to commencement of 

 tail. 



B. Head and body stouter ; tail of moderate length.

Type in the British Museum. I do not find any allusion to 

 this species by succeeding writers. The an-angement of the 

 plates of the head is the same as that in the figures oi Elgaria
