68. Anolis alutaceus. 
Anolis (Dracontura) alutaceus, Cope, Proc. Ac. Philad, 1861, p. 212. 
Head elongate, less so than in A. spectrum. Frontal ridges dis- 
tinct, not elevated, convergent anteriorly, and enclosing a very 
elongate depression ; anterior upper head-scales weakly many-keeled 
or smooth, those of the supraorbital semicircles separated medially 
by small scales ; five to seven enlarged supraoccular scales, separated 
by granules from the supraorbitals; occipital small, irregular, 
widely separated from the supraorbitals; canthus rostralis not 
prominent ; upper labials seven ; auricular opening moderate. 
Gular appendage elongate, of female rudimentary. Lateral scales 
small, gradually blending into the larger dorsals, of which there are 
about ten rows, weakly keeled; ventral scales smooth, transversely 
oblong, in some specimens having a carinate appearance upon the 
thoracic region. The adpressed hind limb reaches the orbit. Tail 
cylindrical, a little more than twice the length of head and body. 
Upper parts dark cinnamon, lighter in the female, beneath paler, 
thickly punctulated with brown on the throat, sides, and extremities; 
on the head, a light band crosses the anterior part of the supra- 
orbital region, and another extends longitudinally back from the 
rostral plate. 
Total length 134 millim., head to ear 15, tail 91.

Anolis bitectus, Cope, Proc. Ac. Philad, 1864, p. 171. 
Head nearly twice as long as broad, as long as or slightly longer 
than the tibia; snout acuminate; forehead concave, frontal ridges 
obsolete ; upper head-scales strongly bi- or tricarinate ; scales of 
the supraorbital semicircles slightly enlarged, separated by two or 
three series of scales; six or seven strongly enlarged, pluricarinate 
supraocular scales, separated from the supraorbitals by one series of 
smaller scales ; occipital as large as the ear-opening, separated from 
the supraorbitals by three or four series of scales ; canthus rostralis 
distinct, canthal scales four; loreal rows seven; eight labials to 
below the centre of the eye; ear-opening rather large, vertically 
oval. Gular appendage large, extending posteriorly beyond the 
thorax, indicated in the female ; gular scales keeled. Body a little 
compressed ; no dorso-nuchal fold. Dorsal scales large, hexagonal, 
juxtaposed, strongly keeled, in eleven longitudinal series; lateral 
scales minutely granular ; ventral scales larger than dorsals, rounded, 
imbricate, strongly keeled. Limbs slender; the adpressed hind 
limb reaches the anterior border of the orbit or the nostril; digits 
very feebly dilated ; thirteen or fourteen lamelle under phalanges 
i. and 1. of the fourth toe. Tail roundish, slightly compressed, 
covered with equal, strongly keeled scales ; its length not twice that 
of head and body. No enlarged postanal scales. Pale brown above; 
a broad dark brown band from the eye to the side of the body ; limbs
