hues, the skin coarsely wrinkled on the sides, 

 the head massive, with powerful jaws ; one 

 species with three horn-like protuberances on 

 the snout, the other with fiery red eye-balls.

 Scattered about the corral are iguanas of other 

 species, among them the Ring-tailed Iguana, 

 {Cyclura carinata), a little known species 



from Turk's Island, and the burly Mexican

 heiiulopha). In the center of the corral 

 stands a big cedar trunk, generously supplied

 portions of its habitat as excellent food, and 

 sold in large numbers in the market.

 July, has left with us for examination, a few 

 fishes obtained by himself and others taken 

 by persons connected with the , Bermuda Bio-
