of the top of the head. When the snakes were 

 closely examined it was not surprising to find their 

 mouths in a state of great inflammation. The false 

 horns were withdrawn, the reptiles' mouths washed 

 with an antiseptic solution, and they were soon 

 none the worse for their protracted torture. 

 Also exhibited in the Reptile House are the 



following African snakes: Zamenis foriilcnta, Z. 

 diadema, Psammophis sibilans, Eryx jaculus and 

 Python sebiC. The two latter species are repre- 

 sentatives of the BoidiC. Eryx jaculus is a small 

 species that burrows in sandy places. Its tail is 

 very blunt and from this characteristic it is some- 

 times called the "two-headed" snake r. l. d.
