The collections made within the last two years in South Africa 

 by Mr. 0. H. B. Grant and jDresented to the British Museum by 

 Mr. 0. D. Bvidd, the Mammals of which have already afforded 

 matter for two papers by Messrs. 0. Thomas and H. Schwann, 

 published in these ' Proceedings,' included a good series of 

 Batrachians and Reptiles, a list of which is here given. No new 

 species were discovered, but the series is interesting for the sake 

 of the localities, our knowledge of the exact distribution of these
