862 MR. S. 8S. FLOWER ON THE REPTILES AND Dec. 1 
> 
from the Perak river in the Taiping Museum. I have heard of a 
third specimen from Perak and also of its being found in Pahang. 
Hab. Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo. 
2. CrocopiLus PoRosUS, Schn. 
Crocodilus porosus, Cantor, p. 16; Giinther, Rept. Brit. Ind. p. 62. 
Crocodilus pondicerianus, Giinther, Rept. Brit. Ind. p. 62, pl. vii. 
Crocodilus porosus, Boul. Cat. Chel. ete. p. 284. 
Cantor says this species is exceedingly numerous in the Malay 
Peninsula, Penang, and Singapore. Stoliczka (J. A.S. B. 1873, 
p. 113) found it in the collection he got from Penang and Province 
‘Wellesley. There are several stuffed specimens and a large skull 
of this species in the Raffles Museum ; one shot by Mr. Owen at 
Serangoon, Singapore, measures 4°7 metres in total length. In 
April 1895 I saw many Crocodiles of this species on the Kedah 
river, between Kuala Kedah and Kota Star, when lying up on the 
mud-banks under the trees; their markings and vivid yellow and 
black colouring render them hard to see in the chequered light 
coming through the foliage. I have also seen this species on the 
Pandan river, Singapore. It is probably found in every suitable 
locality in Malaya. 
Hab. India, Ceylon, Burma, Siam, Southern China, Malay 
Peninsula and Archipelago, New Guinea, North Australia, Solomon 
and Fiji Islands. 
3. CROCODILUS PALUSTRIS, Less. 
Crocodilus vulgarus, Cantor, p. 15. 
Crocodilus palustris, Giinther, Rept. Brit. Ind. p. 61, pl. vii. 
fig. A; Boul. Cat. Chel. etc. p. 285; id. Fauna Ind., Rept. p. 5 
(skull fig. p. 2). 
Cantor says that this species is numerous at Penang and on the 
coast of the Peninsula, but appears to be less so than Crocodilus 
porosus. There isa young specimen from Singapore in the British 
Museum. 
Hab. India, Ceylon, Burma, Malay Peninsula and Archipelago. 
Order SQUAMATA. 
Suborder LACERTILIA. 
Family GECKoNIDz. 
1. GYMNODACTYLUS AFFINIS, Stol. 
Cyrtodactylus affinis, Stol. J. A. 8. B. 1870, p. 167. 
Gymnodactylus affinis, Boul. Cat. Liz. i. p. 42. 
Stoliczka says, ‘‘The only specimen I caught between the bark 
of a large tree near the top of the Government bungalow on 
Penang hill;”’ he subsequently found it in the collection he got 
from Penang and Province Wellesley (J. A.S. B. 1873, p. 113). 
Hab. Malay Peninsula.
