that Province, as this is the only known record. Miss Wilman has taken 
this species in the Kimberley neighbourhood and at Mochudi, and we 
have a specimen from Hanover (Cape Province). Also we have this species 
from Brandfort (Orange Free State) (A. K. Haagner), the only known 
record from that Province. 
Eremias burchelli D.B. — The locality given by Smith is Karroo Flats, 
on the south-west coast of Africa, particularly Little Namaqualand, 
towards Orange River. Roux records it from Matjesfontein, the South 
African Museum has specimens from Clanwilliam and the Middelburg 
districts, the Port Elizabeth Museum has a record from Graaff-Reinet, 
the British Museum Catalogue cites Kaffraria, and Bocage records it from 
Modder River. 
Eremias capensis Smith. — Smith’s record was : “ arid Karroo flats 
within Cape Colony, and of districts immediately beyond”. Fischer states 
Great Namaqualand, Roux records it from Lesser Namaqualand, the 
South African Museum has a specimen from Matjesfontein, the Port 
Elizabeth Museum has it from Graaff-Reinet, and Miss Wilman has it 
from Victoria West. 
Nueras iessellata Smith. — Of wide distribution in tropical and South 
Africa, being recorded by Bocage from the high plateau and intermediary 
zone of south Angola, by Boulenger from the south coast of Lake Victoria 
Nyanza, by Tornier from German East Africa, and by Peters from Mozam- 
bique. It extends southwards through Namaqualand, Rhodesia, Trans- 
vaal, Orange Free State, Zululand, and Natal, into Cape Province, but 
appears to be absent from the southern coastal districts. 
According to Smith it is to be found throughout the districts on the 
western coast of South Africa, particularly Little Namaqualand. Boulenger 
records it from the Richmond district, the South African Museum has 
specimens from the Clanwilliam, Calvinia, Worcester, and Robertson 
districts, the Albany Museum has it from the Grahamstown neighbour- 
hood and from Victoria West (P. D. Morris), and the Port Elizabeth 
Museum from GraafT-Reinefc. 
Nueras dclalandi M. Edw. — This species is common in the eastern 
coastal districts of Cape Province, Port Elizabeth, Uitenhage, East London, 
Grahams town, and Kingwilliamstown. It occurs also in Pondoland, 
Natal, Zululand, and the Transvaal. There are no records from the 
south-western districts of Cape Province, nor from the interior districts, 
excepting Burghersdorp (South African Museum). In the British Museum 
Catalogue there is a record from Damaraland, but this is the only record 
from that district known to me. There are no records of this species 
north of the Limpopo, with the exception of one from Kakoma (German 
East Africa) (Tornier), but as the solitary specimen on which the record 
was based is juvenile it may perhaps belong to the other species. 
Tropidosaura montana Gray. — The distribution cited by Smith is 
“ eastern Cape Colony and Kaffraria ”. We have the species from Table 
Mountain (Mr. L. Taylor), and Mr. Pym has taken it in Pirie Forest, King- 
williamstown. 
Ichnotropis capensis Smith. — Recorded from north and south Angola, 
common in the Kalahari Desert and in certain districts of the Transvaal
