VAEIETIES OP THE WALL-LIZAED.

The female from Voslau is remarkable in having a paired series of dark vertebral 

 spots. Males with the throat and belly red, or cream-colour with rust-red spots ; 

 black ventral spots, if present, confined to the two outer rows of shields, the outermost 

 of which bears large pale blue spots. Females white beneath, with golden sheen ; 

 Small pale blue spots on outer row of ventral shields. 



It will be noticed that the number of scales across the body is generally less than 

 in specimens from France and Belgium. In my previous contribution, particulars of 

 8 specimens from Dinant, Belgium, showed the number to vary between 54 and 62. 

 I have since obtained, with the kind assistance of a young friend, A, van Delft, 

 numerous specimens from a quarry at Denee, not far from Dinant, and the tabulation 

 of 12 specimens confirms this range of variation.

In three of these specimens the series of granules between the supraoculars and the 

 supraciliaries is complete. In five the suture between the first and second supraciliaries 

 is vertical, at least on one side. One specimen has five anterior upper labials on one 

 side. In both sexes the lower parts were white or pale pink in life ; blue spots on the 

 sides large or small in males, small or absent in females. 



Baron G. Fejervary, Jun.*, has published some remarks on specimens from the Ehone 

 Valley in Canton Vaud, Switzerland, figuring the rostral scutellation of a specimen 

 which agrees closely with one found near Randa, noticed on p. o53 (right-hand figure) 

 of my first contribution, and he also records specimens with as many as 62 scales across 

 the body. 



I have also further remarks to off'er on the variations of this lizard in France.

 black Wall-Lizards on one of the Glenan Isles, on the Atlantic coast of Brittany,
