OpHISAURUS APUS ( Pall.) 
e known range of this species is from Dalmatia to Afghanis- 
ie near the Indian border of which we have a specimen;

from the Alipore 2 las Gardens, unfortunately without any 
definite matey ; but the probability is that they are from North- 
Western In 
OPHISAURUS GRACILIS (Gray) 
Of 0. gracilis the Museum possesses a large series, which ex 
bits great boi eng as regards colour. Judging from a collection 
recently made by Major Alcock, this species is commo 
Darjeeling. Major Alcock tells me that it is extremely lugoial 
and generally ‘“‘ shams dead” when handled 
VARANID A, 
VARANUS DUMERILIT (Mill. )
