of tlie supraorbital semicircles strongly enlarged, in contact

 occipital as large as the ear-opening ; canthus rostralis 

 angular, central scales five or six ; loreal rows five or six; 

 six to eight upper labials to below the centre of the eye ; 

 ear-opening large, oval. Body scarcely compressed ; no 

 crest. Dorsal scales very small, juxtaposed, keeled, scales of 

 flanks smaller still, granular; ventrals much larger than
