LIZARDS OF THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS 



median scales are largest, and frequently are slightly separated 

 from each other. The upper and lower labials vary between ten 

 and twelve. The scales between the supranasals are usually re- 

 duced to one large circular scale (four specimens only show ex- 

 ception). The arrangement of the chin scaled is usually in two 

 irregular, curved rows ; most of the enlarged scales are anterior 

 to a line drawn from the posterior part of the third labial across 

 jaw. The tail is wider than deep in cross section ; the regenerat- 

 ed tails have the scales arranged irregularly, the annulations not 

 marked. 



In color the specimens range from brown, with rather heavy, 

 dark, zigzag bars, shading to lighter bars between them, to very 

 light gray specimens with a very few darker markings on back 

 and no trace of zigzag lines ; the young are dark laterally.

* Specimen described. 



Remarks. — I have referred this group of specimens to Bou- 

 lenger's species, since I can find no differences of any importance 

 between them and the published description and drawings of
