In some .specimens the transverse posterior partw)f the frontoparietal 

 crest is broken up. It then resembles the youny of the lUi/o lenllijino- 

 sus, with which it has been supposed to be identical by various authors. 

 It, however, ditfers from tliis species in (he ditferently shapttl parotoid 

 glands, the thickened posterior parts of tlni mandibles, and from all 

 the subspecies, excei)t the />'. /. iroodliousri, in the shorter head. Tiiere 

 is no doubt but that Dr. Ilolbrook was correct in rejfardiiij; this as a 

 distinct species of very snutU size. The redescription of the specii-s by 

 myself was due to the omission of its characteristic peculiarities from 

 extant writings. Tlie erroneous locality (Sandwich Islands) is one of 

 several such errors, based on the incorrect«labeling of the collections of 

 J. II. Townsend, to which tlKsspecimen belonged. 



The geograidiical distribution of this s|)ecies is icstricted io tiie 

 region extending from Kiiiston, N. C, to Middle Georgia and Florida, 

 inclusive.
