The doterminations and draft of this paper were made in East 

 Africa, but three days were spent in going over them again at 

 the British Museum, where I had the advantage of comparing my 

 specimens with allied forms in the National Collection. In this 

 connection I would like to express ray most grateful thanks to 

 .Miss Joan B. Procter, F.Z.S., for much help in examining dubious 

 determinations and for making notes for me on sp6cimens sent 

 liome. 



I have given varietal names to two Agamasto emphasise their 

 very distinctive colouring. One of these forms I have already 

 referred to in a previous paper. 



As before* measurements are giv(3n to the nearest eighth of 

 an inch followed by the exact measurements in millimetres of the 

 length from snout to vent, followed by th6 tail length when iritact ; 

 reproduced tails are denoted by an "r". Maximum lengths are 

 only given when these exceed those recorded in the previous 

 collection. 



Once again I am indebted to Dr. 11. A. Baylis, F.Z.S., for 

 cax-ryiug out the determinations of parasitic nematodes found in 

 so many tropic^il lizards.

A further large series of forty-five specimens of the House 

 Gecko were collected from tliQ following fresh localities: — ■ 

 Zanzibar, Bagilo, Mkindo, Ilonga, Kilosa, Mbala, Mt. Hundu- 

 gula at 1200 feet, Itende, Kilamatinde, Mkalama, Kisumu, 

 Frere Town, and Mombasa Is. 



Mjusi kafiri is the'Kiswahili name for this species. Kololo- 

 lumbusi in Kigiriama according to Koch. 



, On Mombasa. Is. a series Avas taken on baobab trees, where 

 they attain to a greater size than in houses, in such situations it 

 is exceptional to meet with them less than 80 mm. in length from 

 snout to vent. I am disposed, therefore, to think that they 

 desert houses as they grow older and take to trees. But the eggs 

 are common enough in fissures of the bark, though the young are
