Class 3. REPTILIA. 



Chelone imbricata (Schweigg.). Hawks-bill Turtle. 



The only reptile of which we have any record is mentioned in the 

 following note by Fleming, who, in his History of Animals, 



"Sibbald, afterwards in his Auctarium Musei Bcdfouriani, 

 p. 193, adds ' Testudo maxima squamosa, the Scalie Sea Tortoise, 

 the shell of it.' The animal came into Orkney, and this was 

 sent to me from thence." 



Class 4. AMPHIBIA. 



Of the AMPHIBIA there is only one representative 



Bufo vulgaris, Laur. Common Toad, 



This species is common in most of the islands.
