js said to be intermediate between the two species. The form armata 
on the other hand appears to be the eastern form occurring, for example, 
in Zululand. 
Dr. Werner reduced pulchella Boc. as a synonym of aculeata, and 
planiceps from Windhoek he regards as specifically the same as colonorum, 
the former being the rock frequenting variety and the latter arboreal. 
Agama brachyura Boul. — Additional records are Kimberley (Bro. 
J. H. Power), Victoria West (P. D. Morris), Cradock (Sister Joseph), 
Fish River Rand, Bedford District (Albany Museum, old collection), 
Tafelberg, Middelburg District, Cape Province (Ernest Gadd), Belmont 
(Kimberley Museum). 
Dr. Werner says that the heterogeneous dorsal scaling is continued 
wer the basal third of the tail in hispida, but not in brachyura. 
Agama aculeata Merr.— Grahamstown (Albany Museum). 
Zonurus giganteus Smith. — Zand River, Wakkerstroom District 
(Transvaal Museum), Basutoland (Albany Museum). 
Zonurus polyzonus Smith, — My Irene record is incorrect ; it should 
be Hanover, Cape Province (vide L. Taylor). It is not known from the 
Transvaal. Belmont (Kimberley Museum), Aliwal North (Albany Museum). 
Zonurus cordylus Lin. and Z. vittifer Reich. — It is unfortunate that the 
records for these two forms have been lumped together in one by Mr. 
Boulenger. Dr. Jean Roux had previously united them specifically, but 
had assigned to vittifer the rank of a distinct variety. Whether we label 
it species or variety the form is easily distinguished from cordylus, and 
it is certain that the two forms have a geographical meaning. 
Mv record Teafontein for vittifer was probablv incorrect. I know 
of no certain record from Cape Province. 
The distribution of cordylus is improperly known. Bocage recorded 
it from South Angola ; Boulenger says the whole of South Africa, and cites 
Walfisch Bay, but Werner does not know it from German South-West 
Africa. The Walfisch Bay record comes from the same collector as the 
Oedura africana ( q.v .). It may therefore eventually- prove that cordylus 
sens, strict, is confined to Cape Province. 
Zonurus pnesii Boul. — -The specimens from Steynsburg and Uitenhage 
referred to by myself (Vol. II, p. 36) are probably immature individuals of 
cordylus. Kimberley is the most southern record known to me for 
jonesii. Pongola River (Transvaal Museum), M ? moove (42 miles north of 
S.erowe) (Dr. S. Schonland). 
Zonurus tropidogaster Boul.— The description does not show what 
relationship this form has to vittifer and cordylus as distinct forms. As 
I have shown, the frontonasal sctite of vittifer varies very considerably in 
degree of development, and Reichenow’s original description stated 
frontonasal very small ”. I cannot think that the absence of this scute 
is in itself of specific importance. The etample is almost certainly juvenile. 
I think it highly probable that this is the same as vittifer. 
Chamaesaura aenea Fitz. — Oakville Farm, Elliot District (C. S. 
McGregor). The only Cape record known to me. 
Chamaesaura anguina Lin. — My Irene locality is incorrect ; it should 
be Tokai, C.P. Grahamstown, Bathurst, and Swellendam (Albany Museum).
