BUNGARUS FASCIATUS (Schneider) 



U.S.N.M. 



67511 (S311) Chiengmai 1915. 



72061 (S2733) Bangkok June 25, 1926. 



The Chiengmai specimen is so badly mutilated that a count of the 

 ventrals is impossible. There are 15 scale rows around the body, 

 and there are 37 subcaudals, single excepting for the last half dozen, 

 which show a distinct tendency to divide. In coloration this speci- 

 men agrees fairly well with Dr. Malcolm Smith's description in the 

 Snakes of Bangkok. There are 25 yellow bands on the body, a few of 

 those toward the middle being marked with small black patches. 

 The Bangkok specimen has 15 scale rows, 215 ventrals, 35 subcaudals,
