All the specimens are from Aus., Namaqualand.* The Hon. P. A. 
Methuen records the two Transvaal Museum specimens, referred by him 
to A. atra, as having been found at a height of 6500 ft. and 1450 ft. 
respectively. This is a rock or hill frequenting Agama, like A. atra. All 
the specimens captured by Capt. Knobel were found in rocky places, where 
they lived in the crevices of rocks. 
3. Agama atea. 
Agama atra, Daud. Hist. Eept. iv, p. 349 (1802) ; Dum. and Bibr. Erp. 
Gen. iv, p. 493 (1837) ; Bouleng. Cat. Liz. i, p. 352 (1885). 
* Two of the specimens on the list, the first and last, belonging to the Kimberley 
Museum, are unfortunately no longer in existence ; after having been sent to the 
senior author for study, they were lost at sea on their return to South Africa in 
September, 1918.
