I obtained one specimen, a male, from Sourabaya, Java, and 
kept it alive in a tin of sea water for about a month, when it died 
through an accident. It was gentle when handled, never attempt-

colours in life are very handsome—above dark olive-brown, with 
bright yellow transverse stripes, the stripes and edges of the brown 
scales outlined in black; beneath bright yellow. Ventrals 134.
