One hundred and sixty specimens (Nos. 9090-9249) were 

 collected in the vicinity of Wafer and Chatham bays, Sep- 

 tember 5-12, 1905. These lizards were abundant on the vines 

 and trees along the water courses. When approached they 

 would jump several inches from leaf to leaf, and when alight- 

 ing would always turn so as to face the ground. The males at 

 this season were seen displaying the gular pouch.
