This is about the most westerly limit of the species, which abounds all 

 along the east coast of the Bay of Bengal. It has been captured near Cal- 

 cutta, but, probably, the specimens were introduced from ships from the east 

 coast or were the descendants of parents so introduced, as so noisy a reptile 

 could not be indigenous to Lower Bengal without being well known. 



d. several specimens. Assam, India House 



Tenasserim, Museum. 



e. stuffed specimen, (bad state.)
