distance between eye and ear-opening and twice as long as the 

 eye ; ear-opening small. Lepidosis of the head granular. Rostral 

 quadrangular, with a median cleft above, and with a pair of small 

 shields behind ; nostril pierced between the rostral, post-rostral, 

 first labial, and two small granular shields ; eight upper and seven 

 lower labials; mental large, pentagonal, with two large chin-shields 

 behind. The scales surrounding the body are nearly of the same 

 size; about eighty- six longitudinal series may be counted round 

 the middle of the body. Tail conical, with a median series of 

 larger scutes below. The fore part of the hind limbs is covered with 

 small imbricate scales like the body, wdiilst the posterior part is 

 granular with large subcorneal tubercles. Similar tubercles, but 

 fewer in number and flatter, are seen on the hinder side of the fore- 

 arm. Fifteen pores in the praeanal series, which extends for some 

 distance on the thigh. Thumb with six lamellae, of which the 

 penultimate is deeply notched ; seven lamellae under the second, 

 eight under the third, and seven under the foui"th fingers. Inner 

 toe with three lamellae, of which the middle is notched : second 

 toe with four lamellae, the penultimate being divided ; fourth toe 

 with six lamellec, the penultimate being divided ; fifth toe with six- 

 lamella?, all of which are more or less notched. 

 Upper parts uniform brownish, lower whitish.

Xostril lateral, not tubular, and below the canthus rostralis. 

 The anterior of the upper scutes of the head are smooth, but 

 the posterior surmounted by a small spine ; occipital not enlarged ; 

 small, conical spinous scales on the sides of the throat, about the 

 ear, and on the neck ; ear larger than the eye-opening. A deep 

 fold across the throat, but no gular pouch. Body depressed, 

 without fold on the side of the back ; back with numerous larger 

 scales mixed among the small ones, the largest forming a tolerably 

 regular series on each side of the median line ; the two series 

 passing into two rows of very large scutes which protect the 

 median line of the tail. All the larger scales are keeled. Ventral 

 scales smaller than the largest on the back, keeled, the keels 

 terminating behind in a spine.
