57. Phrynosoma modestum Girard. Least honied lizard. 
Hab., southwestern United States and Mexico. 
Three specimens from Pecos. Presented by Mr. E. 
Meyenberg. The large number of these lizards 
which were received later in the season is sufficient 
evidence of the abundance of this species in western 
Texas. 
58. Gerrhonotus multicarinatus Blain. Many-keeled lizard. 
Hab., Pacific coast of United States. 
One specimen from Oakland, Cal. Purchased. 
59. Cnemidophorus tessellatus (Say.) Tesselated Hzard.
