Pennsylvania, Bucks Co. (W. A. Shryock), Cumberland Co. 

 (Rhoads), Lancaster Co. (Stone), Monroe Co. (Rhoads), Har- 

 vey's Lake, Luzerne Co. (Stone ) ; 



New Jersey, Morris Co. (Dr. Fisher). 



Lampropeltis getulus (Linne). — A rather common species in 

 southern New Jersey, the most northern record being Pt. Pleasant, 

 Ocean Co. (S. Brown ). All the specimens I have examined came 

 from the eastern and western edge of the pine barrens rather than 

 from the heart of the region though this may have been accidental. 

 Rhoads obtained this snake at Seaford, Del., but I have never 

 seen a specimen from Pennsylvania. 



Lampropeltis doliatus (Tvinne'M.- One typical ^ix^cinuMi from

 (Fowler) and one marked near Phihidelphia. More material will 

 be necessary in order to ascertain whether these two forms are 

 constant and confined to the districts assigned to them. Certain

 are all clericus, the Philadelphia specimen above mentioned being 

 the only exception. 



Heterodon platyrhinos Latreille. — Common, ranging from the 

 Alleghanies across to the coasl. 



Agkistrodon contortrix (Linne).— Becoming scarce in thickly 

 settled districts. I have seen it in York and Fulton Cos., Pa., 

 and have examined specimens from Carbon Co. (Rehn), Lehigh 

 Co. (Rehn), Pottsville (C. T. Hughes), Round Island, Clinton 

 Co. (Rhoads), Pa. I have seen no specimens from New Jersey. 



Crotalus horridus (Linn6).— I have found this species within 

 the past few years on the foothills of the main Alleghany :^Ioim- 

 tains near Lovelton, Wyoming Co., and on Tuscarora ^It., Fulton 

 Co., Pa., while Rehn collected several in Huntingdon Co. and 

 Rhoads obtained specimens at Round Island, Clinton Co., and
