A LIST OF THE AMPHIBIANS AND REPTILES OF 



NEVADA, WITH NOTES ON THE SPECIES 



IN THE COLLECTION OF THE 



ACADEMY

Assistant Curator of the Department of Herpetology 



No list of the reptiles and amphibians of Nevada as a whole 

 has yet been published. In order that one may be available we 

 have undertaken the preparation of that which follows. This 

 list is based upon the published records as well as upon the 

 collections of the California Academy of Sciences. It has been 

 drawn upon the same lines as our previous lists of the amphi- 

 bians and reptiles of Arizona (1913) and of Utah (1915). 

 It is thought to include all species now definitely known to live 

 in Nevada. Those which the Academy has not yet received 

 from within the borders of that state are indicated by a star 

 preceding the number in the list. Following this list are given 

 notes on the species represented in the Academy's collections. 

 Our specimens from Nevada were nearly all secured by Mr. 

 Slevin in 1913 and 1916.
