J 1 33 :31, <$ 32 :32, J 1 , ? 31 :32 twice, $ 30 :34, J 1 30 :30, ? 29 :31, ? 29 :30, 

 $27:28, and?— :25. They are small in the eight females and medium- 

 sized in the five males of the lot. In six cases they are in one and in 

 seven instances in two rows. An accessory row is not present in tin- 

 thighs with 25, 27, 28 and 35 pores, but is represented in most of the 

 intermediate thighs and contains from one to three pores. 



The supra-ocular rows of scales are 8 in one individual, 9 in five, 

 10 in five, 11 in one, and 12 in one. The loreal rows, counted where 

 they join the line of the orbit, are 7 in six and 8 in seven specimens. 

 The labials are strongly keeled ; they number ^- in one, —- in two, - 8 - 

 in one, ~- in two, -~ in two, -^- in two, - 1 " in two, and -]° in one. The 

 keeled suborbitals are 6-6 in one, 6-5 in two, 5-5 in four, 5^4 in 

 one, 4-4 in two, 3-4 in one and 3-3 in one. The occipitals are 

 separated from the small supra-oculars by 3 to 4 rows of scales. The 

 scales on the outer edge of the gular fold are smaller than those in 

 the middle, which in turn are larger than those on the throat. Ear 

 lappets are 4 to 6. The points on the fringes of the lower eyelids are 

 longer than those on the upper. 



In all the specimens of the present lot a black spot from four to 

 twelve millimeters in diameter is present on each side of the abdomen 

 (see pi. 22) ; in some of the smaller specimens these spots are narrowly 

 margined with green. In three the black markings on the throat are 

 indistinct or reduced; in others two or three crescents and one to 

 three V-shaped marks are present on the throat (see pi. 22, fig. 6). The 

 black spots on the tail number to 7 ; they are apparently not present 

 on regenerated tail-tips and are never continued on the dorsal surface 

 as in Callisaurus. Four of the smaller specimens are dorsally of the 

 greenish notata type of coloration, with the ground color of the back of 

 a pale greenish blue, near pale glaucous blue. Five of the intermediate 



examples are spotted with cinnamon on a background of gi nisli 



yellow, with the ocellations and brown crescents ascribed to rufo- 

 punctata; and the four largest individuals (all males) are of the 

 scoparia type of coloration, being covered with rich black ocellations 

 each bordered with a fine line, one scale wide, of orange-rufous. Each 

 spot of light color is centered with a black dot, itself encircled by a 

 narrow orange-rufous ring. The ground color is maize yellow. The 

 eyelids and sometimes the sides of the head and tail in females are 

 tinged with orange. One so colored contained three eggs, each 9 

 millimeters in diameter. Another contained one egg 18 millimeters 

 long. Black spots are present behind both femurs in only two indi-
