VARIETIES OP THE WALL-LIZAED. 



161 



In 3 specimens (out of 9) the parietal does not touch the upper postocular. The 

 series of granules between the supraoculars and the supraciliaries is usually complete. 

 Masseteric disk large. Dorsal scales granular, smooth or faintly keeled, 4 or 5 seiies 

 on the sides corresponding to a ventral plate, 46 to 58 corresponding to the length of 

 the head. Scales on tibia smaller than dorsals, feebly keeled. Caudal scales truncate 

 and diagonal, on the sides with the keel much nearer the dorsal border. 



VII.— EAST COAST and ISLANDS of the ADRIATIC, GREECE. 



Forma typica. 



I have received a good many of these lizards from various localities East of the 

 Adriatic, and, before offering remarks on them, I will give a tabulation of the size and 

 numbers of scales and pores in a number of specimens which, unless marked W. 

 (Werner Collection), are preserved in the British Museum.

 zool.-bot. Ges. Wien, xli. 1891, p. 742)*; much spotted with black above and 

 beneath, with a black, wavy lateral band, approaches the var. hrueggemanni in the 

 longer hind limb reaching the collar, with the foot Ij the length of the bead and

 second, incomplete, series. Parietal If times as long as broad ; interparietal nearly 

 4 times as long as the occipital ; an azygous shield between the praefrontals. Collar
