A single fine specimen from Sarayacu. 
This fine and cosispieunus species is related to EcpUopus {Ett- 
sponffyhx') maculttius^ Tsehndl ; and as regards the principal cha- 
racters of the head-shielfls, and giilar and anal scntellniion of that 
Bpeeies figured by Prof, Peters, does not exhibit nuy marked dif- 
ferences, Tschudi's figure of the entire Lizard indicates, however, 
a very different general ftppenrance> more like that of Frocfoporus 
Jraserif O'S,, based by me on a specimen formerly confounded 
with E\ macatatna in the British Museum, but differing from it in 
the absence of fronto-nasaln. The present species of Empanthjlu^ 
presents a remarkuble likeness to the Gerrhont)ti named Eiyaria 
by some authors. Amongst otlier jiaints of" difference apparent 
from a comjianson with the descriptioiis of Euspondtfhts nmculutus 
of Tsciiudi and Peters, it would appear that the very well developed 
series of infraoeulars is not distinct in Tschudi's species as fiji^ured 
by Peters, also that the scales are smaller, and that a longitudinal 
black stripe on the side of the neck is very charncteristic of Euapoit- 
dylm macula Im, while there is no such stripe in the Lizard before us, 
nor indeed any markings distributed lungitndiually. IVIoreover 
the black dorsal bars are very difft-rent from tlie quadraogular black 
spots described by Tschndi^ and distinguish it at once from all 
other Lizards of this group,
