94 THE CROCODILES AND LIZAKDS OF BORNEO. 



great deal towards increasing the collection, besides rendering 

 me valuable assistance respecting the particulars of the speci- 

 mens. 



54. — Mahuia saravacensis, n. sp. S. M. 



Habit, robust; head, broad behind; scales, twenty-eight 

 round the body ; back, nearly the whole length of tail and upper 

 surface of fore Hmbs, tricarinate; hind limbs above, bi- and tri- 

 carinate; under parts, smooth. 



Above, pale dull-brown, with irregular transverse bars of 

 black yellow and white-edged spots, which pass over on to the 

 sides of the belly; two distinct round black spots on the parietals; 

 eyelids, yellow ; whole of underparts, bright grass-green. 



Rare in this locality. 



Santubong and Kiiching (E. Bartlett). 



55. — Lygosoma variegatum, Boulen. Cat. Lizards, iii, 

 p. 246, 1887. S. M. 

 Male. — Above, dull brown ; marbled, and with two longitu- 

 dinal rows of unequal sized spots down the back; chin, throat, 

 and breast, deep cobalt blue ; paler blue on the chest and belly ; 

 under sides of fore arms, vent and hind legs, dirty yellow ; under 

 surface of tail, french grey, or bluish grey. 



Lygosoma variegatum. 



Female. — Above, like the male; chin, and throat, whitish; 

 whole of under parts including limbs, bright yellow ; under side 

 of tail, bluish-grey. 



She is the most beautiful of all the lizards found here. In 

 old males, the cobalt blue of the throat is very brilliant. 



It is not very abundant. 



Borneo (L. L. fJilhvyn) Kuching, Sarawak (E. Bartlett). 



56. — Lygosoma Mnahaluen^is, n. sp. S. M. 



Male. — Similar to L. variegatum, but the back is mottled 

 and without striations, and without a distinct dorsolateral band. 



This small species is quite distinct, therefore, I name it to 

 distinguish it from the others at present, until I can procure 

 more specimens. 



Being a spirit specimen, I am unable to give the decided 

 colours. Kina Balu, N. Borneo (G. D. Haviland.)
