in front surrounded by granules (which are missing above). Rostral broad, largely in 
contact with the frontonasal; the latter narrowly in contact with the frontal; fron- 
tal rather small, not much larger than either frontoparietal, in contact with the first 
supraocular and narrowly with the strongly enlarged first supraciliary; frontoparietals 
and interparietal distinct, the latter somewhat smaller than either of the former; 
three supraoculars, the first much the largest; three supraciliaries, the first much 
larger than the others; parietals moderate, in contact behind, each bordered by a 
large nuchal and a small temporal. Four supralabials anterior to the large sub- 
ocular; ear-opening small, roundish. 22 scales round the body, subequal. A pair of 
somewhat enlarged preanals. Limbs well developed, pentadactyle; the adpressed 
limbs overlap, but the hind limb does not reach the axilla. Tail only a little longer 
than head and body. General colour bronzy olive above, but under the magnifying 
glass each scale proves to be greenish (in spirit) with a central black spot and a 
broad brown margin; head above and on the sides mottled with blackish. Lower 
side of head and body bluish white. Tail probably red in life, paler below.
