ANGUIDAI, 
OPHISAURUS APUS (Pall.) 
The known range of this species is from Dalmatia to Afehanis- 
tan, from near the Indian border of which we have a specimen; 
but it probably occurs also in adjacent parts of India. There 
are several specimens in the Indian Museum which have come 
from the Alipore Zoological Gardens, unfortunately without any 
definite history ; but the. probability is that they are from North- 
Western India. 
OPHISAURUS GRACILIS (Gray) 
Of O. gracilis the Museum possesses a large series, which exhi- 
bits great variation as regards colour. Judging from a collection 
recently made by Major Alcock, this species is common near 
Darjeeling. Major Alcock tells me that it is extremely sugars 
and generally “shams dead” when handled. 
VARANIDAL. 
VARANUS DUMERILI (Miull.) 
The only specimen we possess is immature, being the type of 
Blanford’s Varanus macrolepis. It is very desirable that further 
examples should be obtained, as the other Iudian species of the family 
are represented by large series.
