ADDITIONAL NOTES ON THE HERPETOLOGY OF 

 LOWER CALIFORNIA. 



BY JOHN VAN DENBURGH, 



[Curator of the Department ot Herpetology.J 



The collection upon which these notes are based was 

 made by J. M. Stowell and S. C. C. Lunt while on a 

 zoological expedition to San Pedro Martir Mountain in 

 the northern part of Lower California. The specimens 

 which they secured now belong to the Leland Stanford 

 Junior University, and I am greatly indebted to Dr. Chas. 

 H. Gilbert of that institution for the privilege of exam- 

 ining them. Several species and one genus are included 

 which have not been recorded previously from the penin- 

 sula. These are Crota^hytus xvislizenii, Sceloforus or- 

 cutti, Lamfi-ofeltis boylii, Bascanion ficemn, Thamno- 

 ■phis hammondii, Crotalus ruber, and Rana draytonii. 



A few specimens in the Academy's collection also are 

 recorded, adding one more sy>^c\qs,, L,epidochelys olivacea, 

 to the known fauna of this territory.
