(Plates III-VIII.) 



Through the kindness of the Director of the Carnegie Museum, Dr. 

 W. J. Holland, the writer has been permitted to study and describe 

 in these pages six turtles, which have been collected by parties sent out 

 from the Museum in recent years. The drawings and the photo- 

 graphs illustrating these species have been furnished by the Museum. 



Testudo peragrans, sp. nov. 

 This species has as its type No. iioi of the Carnegie Museum. It 

 was collected in 1903, by Mr. Earl Douglass, at a point south of 

 McCarty's mountain and Big Hole River, and north of Dillon, Mon- 

 tana. The deposits are supposed to belong to the Lower Miocene, 

 but they may be a part of the Upper Oligocene.
