Bliss, Aug. 10, 1894. The lower surfaces are beautifully 
tinted posteriorly with rose pink. 
12. Pituophis catenifer (Blainv.).—The Western Gopher- 
Snake was collected at Roseburg, Oregon, and at Blue Lake, 
Idaho. I can detect no difference from California specimens. 
13. Thamnophis parietalis (Say).—A garter-snake of this 
species was taken at Weiser, Idaho, August 6, and another 
near Bear River, Logan County, Utah, August 27, 1894. 
14. Thamnophis vagrans (B. & G.).—The Wandering Gar- | 
ter-Snake was collected in Oregon at Umatilla and Wallowa; 
in Idaho at Arco, Shoshone Falls, Warderer, Ketcham, Weiser, 
on the plains along the south side of the Snake River near 
Salmon Falls, at the head of Malade River Cafion, on Cotton- 
wood Creek, Cassia County, near Clear Water River seven 
miles above Lewiston, Nez Perces County, and near Potlatch 
Creek two miles above Lewiston; and in Utah near Bear River, 
Logan County. 
15. Thamnophis vagrans biscutata (Cope).—Four speci- 
mens of this snake were preserved at Klamath Falls, Oregon, 
where thousands were observed. They differ in coloration 
from most of the specimens from Washington which I have 
referred to this subspecies, showing fewer spots, and some- 
what resemble certain specimens of T. elegans. Some of their 
scale characters are: nasals, 2-2, 2-2, 2-2, 2-2; loreal, 1-1, 1-1, 
1-1, 1-1; preoculars, 1-1, 2-2, 2-2, 3-3; postoculars, 3-3, 3-3, 
3-3, 3-3; temporals, 1+3—1+3, 1+2—1+2, 1+3—1-+3, 
1+2—1+2; genials, posterior much longer, posterior much 
longer, equal, equal; supralabials, 8-8, 8-8, 8-8, 8-8; scale rows, 
23, 23, 21, 21; urosteges, 76, —, 73, —; gastrosteges, 168, —, 
165, —. 
16. Crotalus oregonus Holbrook.—The Pacific Rattlesnake 
was secured at Klamath Falls, Oregon; and at Twin Falls, and 
in Blue Lakes Cafion, Idaho. 
17. Rana pipiens brachycephala (Cope).—This beautiful 
frog was caught in the Snake River at American Falls, Oneida 
County; at Montgomery’s Ferry, at the mouth of the Weiser 
River, Weiser, Washington County; at Spring Branch, just 
above Shoshone Falls, Logan County; and at Blue Lake 
Spring, Idaho. It was also taken at Logan, Cache County, 
Utah.
