I. — Notes on Indian Herpetology, — by Dr. T. C. Jerdon. 

 Rec. 1st February, 1870. 



As some time will probably elapse before my work on the 

 Eeptiles of India can be published, I think it advisable to lay 

 before the Society a short account of some recent discoveries in 

 Indian Herpetology, a few of which are the result of my own 

 researches, and very many from the most successful labours of 

 Major B e d d o m e, Conservator of Forests in Madras.
