Explanation of Plate i. 

 Typhlops Bitubercui.atus Peters. 



In all the figures the head nf the snake is directed towards the left hand, 

 and in fig 2 the reptile is represented in the act of vmtying the knot into which it 

 had coiled itself (see p. 2). 



The striped appearance of the borly is due to reflection of light from the 

 highl\'-]>o!ished rows of scales.
