Its preSftTice west of the San Bernardino Mountains within tlie range 

 of C. inizlize.nU sugests that C. situs is only a sub-species of the former. 

 Future collectors with additional specimens will perhape be able to 

 demonstrate this. 



9. SauramaTus ater DUMERIT.. The University possesses 

 two specimens of this large lizard frjm Tempe, Arizona; one [.S441] 

 adult, au.d,the_other_[:'>i'JSl yonnt;. Mr. Heller found the "CFiuck- 



^'walla' common at Warren's Wells, San Bernardino county, Cal., in 

 May, 1897. 



10. TJta stansburiana BAIRD & GIRARD. Among the large 

 collection of this species Jtlie unrecorded ones are: [3435-3437] takeii 

 by Geo. B. Culver at White River, Tulare county. Gal.; [3361-3379] 

 collected bvi R. E. SiiodsrKss at Ontario, San tJerdardino county; 

 [3174, 33S0-3'395, 3701-3704, 3599-3604] from Tempe, Arizona; [2769 and 

 2832] from -'between Blue l,akes and Shoshone Falls; [2776-2778] 

 • Plains between Bliss and Snake Kiver," and [2809 and 2815] "Sage 

 brush plains, between Shoshone and Blue Lakes," in Logan county, 

 Idaho. 



Mr. Heller collected it in the San Bernardino Mountains in Julv, 

 at Warren's in May, at Lytle Creek, Warren's ranch and Wi\terman's 

 Canon, San Bernardino Mountains in San Bernardino county, and at 

 Oak iTiove, Descanso and Sirrento, in San Dieiro county, Cal., during 

 the summer of 1897. Mr. Coolidge took a nnudier in the Chihuahua 

 Mountains, in San Diego county, and several at Grapeland, San Ber- 

 nardino county, Cal. 



11. Sceloporus graeious BAIRD li- GTRARD. Mr. Van Den- 

 burgh in his late paper, "The Reptiles of the Pacific Coast and Great 

 Basin,"* page 76, says: "This little lizard is a mountain dwelling 

 species througliout its range in' California, which extends the whole 

 length of the State. It is verj' abundant in Hemet and strawberry 

 Valleys, in the San Jacint;o mountains of Riverside county, t but has 

 not been repurtfd from any of the more vortherii. cua^t rangis " Then in a 

 foot note he records a specimen from Berryessa Valley, Napa county, 

 California. 



Now if the gentleman, who was appareiitly desirous of naming 

 vail known localities, was very well acquainted with the University 

 collection or had taken the trouble to look over the catalogue, he 

 would have found four specimens [2'i87, 2589, 2592, 2599] of this spe- 

 cies from Fort Jones, Siskiyou county, Cal , C(dlected by Mr. R. C. 

 McGregor in 1894, which were in the collection long before his work 

 was published. This is apparently pure carelessness, as- on page 79 

 of his paper be records the specimens of S. occidentalis taken bv Mr. 

 McGregor at the same time and place. The .V. graciosus have S'. occi- 

 detUaliti intervening between tliem as the numbers indicate.
