in Pike Co., Pa., and I have examined additional specimens from 

 Chambersbiirg (Mrs. P. P. Calvert) and Warren Co., Pa. (Dr. 

 Slack ). In the southeastern parts of the State it is exterminated. 

 In southern New Jersey it is very rare and I know of no authentic 

 recent records though there is a specimen in the Academy collec- 

 tion collected many years ago at Pemberton, N. J. (Dr. Coleman ). 



Eumeces fasciatus (Linn6). — I have taken this lizard at York 

 Furnace, York Co., Pa., and J. A. G. Rehn obtained it on the 

 mountains of Huntingdon Co., Pa., where one would rather expect 

 E. anthracinus, a species which I know from the State only on the 

 strength of Baird's Carlisle record. In New Jersey it occurs at 

 May's Landing, Jones Mill, and doubtless other spots in the pine 

 barrens. In Delaware I have found it about Choptank Mills. 

 One in the Wagner Institute collection, captured in Fairmount 

 Park, Philadelphia, a few years ago, may have escaped from con- 

 finement like the specimens of Phrynosoma and Alligator which 

 are occasionally found within the city limits. 



Leiolepisma laterale (Say).— On September 2, 1901, J. A. G. 

 Rehn and I caught one of these little lizards and saw another a 

 mile or so east of Atsion, Burlington Co., N. J., in the heart of the 

 pine barrens. Dr. J. P. Moore had previously taken it at Pleasant 

 Mills some ten miles farther south. 



Sceloporus undulatus (Daudin). — Abundant all over the pine 

 barrens of New Jersey, but I have not seen it from north of this 

 region. In Pennsylvania it is rare, though formerly more com- 

 mon. I have only taken it along the lower Susquehanna valley, 

 in York and Lancaster Cos., though Rhoads obtained it at Round 

 Island, Clinton Co., and I have examined a specimen collected in 

 Chester Co. by Cope. 



Dermochelys coriacea (Vandelli). — One was washed ashore at 

 Asbury Park, X. J., some vears iv^o, and another from Delaware 

 Bay is in Cope's roUrctioii.' 



Aspidonectes spinifer i Le Suer ). A few of tlie>e turtles have 

 of late years found their way into the Delaware valley. One was 

 captured in Cooper's Creek, N. J., in 1902, and another in Warren 

 Co., N. J., now in the Wagner Institute collection, Philadelphia. 

 I have also examined specimens from the Alleghany River in 

 western Pennsylvania,
