In connection with this genus I may add an interesting 

 note obtained from Count L. F. de Pom-tales in a conver- 

 sation after his visit to the Galapagos on the Hassler Ex- 

 pedition. He stated that one day as he was sitting on a 

 rock on the shore of one of the islands he saw a hawk 

 stoop for one of these little lizards running back and forth 

 on the sands. At once on the approach of his enemy the 

 lizard rushed into the water and remained there until the 

 hawk had gone away. So far as I am aware no notice has 

 heretofore been made of a disposition on the part of species 

 of Tropidurus to enter the water. 



Below are given the determinations and notes secured 

 by a study of the remainder of the Doctor's collection. 



CONOLOPHUS SUBCRISTATUS Gray ; St. 



A specimen from Barrington has a length of body of 

 four and three-fourths and of tail seven and one-half inches.
