From this primitive arrangement, in which the tubercles are uni- 

 formly distributed over the whole periphery of the segment, are 

 derived those of Glossiplionia and BrancJiellion. In the former case 

 the less-developed tubercles are localized on the dorsal surface ; in 

 the second they are modified in their form and become marginal. —

Note on some Reptiles from Sumatra described hy Bleeker in 18G0. 



By G. A. BOULENGER. 



Dr. Strauch has kindly drawn my attention to a paper by Bleeker, 

 " Reptilien van Agam," I^atuurk. Tijdschr. Nederl. Ind. xx. pp. 325- 

 329 (1860), containing descriptions of new species, which vs^as 

 unfortunately overlooked by me whilst preparing the ' Catalogue 

 of Lizards.' This omission is the more to be regretted as the 

 actual types of the species described in that paper are preserved in 

 the British Museum, where they were received in 1863. Dr. Giin- 

 ther, also overlooking Blocker's contribution, and considering the 

 names appended to the specimens as merely MS., redescribed in 

 1872 and 1873 the species which appeared new to him. The follow- 

 ing is a list of Bleeker's species, with their identifications : — 



1. Galotes Luedekingii, ^Ykr.'= Lophocalotes interruptus, Gthr. 

 Should bear the name Lojahocalotes Luedehingii. 



2. Lophyrus megalepis, Blkr. = T'iaWs tuber culatus, Gthr. 

 Should be called Gonyocephalus megalepis. 



3. Hemiphyllodactylus typus,'&ikr.=Spat}iodactylus'mutilatus, Gthr. 



4. Gymnodactylus agamensis, Blkr. := G. marmoratus, Kuhl. 



5, Chelomeles sumatrensis, Blkr. = G. sumatrensis, Gthr. 



6. Typhlina leuciorus, Blhr.= Dihamus 7iovas-guinece, D. & B., 5 

 (specimen h of Cat. Liz. p. 435). 



7. Tropidolepisma macrurus, Blkr. = J/a6iaa multifasciata, 

 Kuhl, pull. 



8. Calamaria agamensis, Blkr.= C. Schlegeli, D. & B.
