are divergent anteriorly and terminate anteriorly in a fovea, 
posteriorly they do not cross the smooth area; the meso- 
sternum is straight anteriorly and finely marginate, evenly 
and clearly but not densely punctate; the anterior tibie are 
5-6-denticulate. 
This species should be placed in the same section as 
S. aterrimus, Er., inversus, Lew., Lacordairet, Mars., con- 
nectens, Payk., and arcipygus, Sch. In these species the 
prosternal striz terminate in a fovea in the anterior part of 
the keel.

One example ( 2 ) in the Godman Collection. 
Notre.—Signor Fuente has kindly sent me the types of 
Saprinus calatravensis and navasi, Fuente, and I find the 
first = bitterensis, Mars., and the second detersus, Illig. 
The type of navasz is highly punctate, and the smooth space 
between the second and third dorsal strize is nearly oblite- 
rated ; but I have an example exactly similar in a series of 
detersus I brought from Central Spain.

Gehyra yunnanensis. 
Head and limbs moderately elongate. Head oviform; 
snout as long as the distance between the eye and the ear- 
opening, which is small and round ; head covered with finely 
granular scales, which are larger on the snout; rostral nearly 
twice as broad as deep, with a short median cleft above ; 
nostril pierced between the rostral, the first upper labial, and 
three nasals, the upper of which is separated from its fellow 
behind the rostral by several minute granules; 10 upper and 
10 lower labials ; symphysial pentagonal, the posterior angle 
wedged in between the two median of a series of small chin- 
shields. Scales uniformly granulate on the back, limbs, and 
throat, larger, flat, and imbricate on the belly. Digits free, 
strongly dilated, with large transverse lamellae which are 
entire under the first digit, whilst under the other digits three 
or four of the distal are chevron-shaped and divided by a 
median groove. Tail cylindrical, covered with small imbri- 
cate scales above and beneath. Male with an angular series 
of 18 femoro-preanal pores. Grey-brown above, dotted with
