BARBOUR AND NOBLE: LIZARDS OF THE GENUS AMEIVA. 445 
Salem collection and these are now in this Museum. The other 
specimens are four examples (M. C. Z. 3616) which are marked Jeremie, 
Haiti, collection of Dr. D. F. Weinland. Cope had the Weinland col- 
lection borrowed from the M. C. Z. for study at the time he described 
Amewa corvina and when that Haitian material was returned these 
specimens were doubtless included. They are, we think, certainly the 
Riise specimens which were either destined for the Smithsonian 
or which had been borrowed from the collection by Cope before they 
had been entered in the Washington catalogue. These examples are 
those which Garman mentioned as types (Bull. Essex. inst., 1887, 19, 
p. 10) but apparently without suspecting the erroneous locality, 
Jeremie, Haiti. 
There is also the possibility that Cope really received these speci- 
mens from Cambridge, that the mixing with Haitian material took 
place there, and that he wrote the Smithsonian Institution by mistake 
for the Museum of Comparative Zoédlogy. Such a lapsus would have 
been easy to make when he was constantly receiving specimens from 
both institutions. In any case two of these examples have been trans- 
ferred to the U. S. National Museum. One of the other series of 
cotypes, from the Philadelphia Academy, has been received recently 
in exchange. 
Habitat:— Apparently confined to the islands of Sombrero and 
Anguilla of the Lesser Antilles. It is unusual that a small island like 
Anguilla should have two species of Ameivas upon it, for A. garmani 
is peculiar to that island. It is quite probable that this locality 
record is incorrect.
