Tel el Amarna. 
The upper labials are variable, as the subocular, which in the majority is between 
the 4th and 5th, is occasionally between the 5th and 6th upper labials, but only 
asymmetrically, except in the case of an individual from Mount Sinai. In all, the 
collar is attached at the middle either by the mesial scale or by one or more on 
either side of it, but the fine granules of the fold are prolonged on, under the 
scales, nearly to the mesial line ; it is least attached in the specimen from Tel el 
Amarna. There is considerable variation in the extent to which the rostral is 
in contact with the frontonasal. In ten specimens, in which all the localities are 
represented, these two shields form a distinct suture, but in six others, and in one from 
the Wells of Moses, the two shields meet only in a fine point. In two specimens from 
Gizeh the nasals form a suture in the mesial line separating the rostral from the fronto- 
nasal. In one specimen from the oasis of Khargeh there are only 10 ventrals.
