•f This is the correct spelling of the word, which evidently has been de- 

 rived from Van Diemen{'s Land). Originally written Demansia by Dr. Gray, 

 it has since been altered into Diemansia by myself (Colubr. Snak. p. 254), 

 and into Diemennia by the editor of the ' Proceediugs of the Zoological 

 Society' (1863). 



X We possess now two specimens of this species, one being nearly 5 feet 

 long. I suppose it is a native of Persia or Syria.
