Ptyodactylas lobatus, Del Prato, Atti Soc. Ital. xxxv. 1895, p. 24 ; Blgr. Ann. Mus. Civ. Genova, 
ser. 2, xvi. (xxxvi.) 1896, p. 549. 
Form stout ; body rather short and somewhat depressed ; head usually more or less 
depressed ; nostril but little swollen, defined by the rostral, labial, and three nasals, 
but in some the first labial is excluded. Eye moderate ; 12-15 upper and lower labials. 
Limbs short and stout; disks large; 8 to 10 lamella?, generally 10 — 10, frequently 
9 — 10, occasionally 9 — 9, rarely 8 — 9. Tail thick at the base, rounded, verticillate, with 
indications of a median longitudinal sulcus and usually two tubercles on the hinder 
margin of the verticils. Granules moderately large ; tubercles keeled or nearly smooth, 
generally present on the fore and hind limbs ; a few small tubercles on the temporal 
region, before the ear and sometimes about the gape. Ventrals rather large. 
Dark or pale brown, usually broadly reticulated with darker, enclosing large light- 
coloured spots, four to five from the occiput to the pelvis and with a series on 
the sides of the trunk, but the reticulations and spots are sometimes nearly obsolete 
and the general colour becomes grey-brown. Limbs either marked like the trunk, 
or more or less barred with brown ; tail broadly barred with dark brown. Underparts 
whitish. 
It attains to a large size: 6 , snout to vent 96 millim., tail 68 millim.
