18 LIZARDS OF THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS 



The collections of reptiles made in Mindanao in 1908 by Maj. 

 J. M. T. Partello resulted in the discovery of the new and striking 

 TropidophoTMs partelloi Stejneger, at Cotabato, Mindanao. This 

 species is still known only from the type. 



Dr. J. B. Thompson, surgeon of the United States Battleship 

 Cincinnati, made collections of reptiles which were sent to Stan- 

 ford University. No new lizards were described from the Philip- 

 pine material. 



The collections I made in the Islands from 1912 to 1917 resulted 

 in the discovery of the following new species and subspecies : 



Gymnodactylus armulatus Taylor; Agusan, Mindanao. 



Gymnodactylus agusanensis Taylor; Agusan, Mindanao.
