Mr. E. D. Cope, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sc. Philad. 1864, p. 230,

I. Scolecophidia. 
II. Catodonta. 
III. Tortricina. 
1. Tortricidcn. 2. Uropdtidai. 3. ( P). 
IV. Asmen.

Earn. TYPHLOPIDA5. The first part of M. Jan^s Mconographie^ 
contains a descriptive synopsis of sixty-three species known to 
him, all of which are figured in part i. pis. .5 & 6, part ii. pis. 5 
& 6, part iii. pis. 4, 5 & 6, and part iv. pis. 4, 5 & 6. The two 
plates of parti, have been critically examined by Peters (Wiegm. 
Arch. 1861, p. 35), who proves that the figures of Stenostoma 
bicolor, pi. 5. f. 15, Typfilops preissiiy pi. 5. f. 2, Anomalepis 
mexicanus, pi. 6. f. 1, Typhlops hianconii, pi. 6. f. 3, Typhlops 
flavoterminatus, pi. 6. f. 10, are incorrectly drawn. 
Typhlina, Diaphorotyphlops (!), TyphlopHy Ophthnhnidiony and Onychoccpha- 
lus are considered by Jan as subgeneric divisions of Typhlops. 
Giinther, Kept. Brit. Ind., has figured on pi. 16 the following 
known species of Indian Typhlopid(R : — , 
Typhlina lineata (Boie), fig. B; Typhlops nigroalhus (D. & B.), fig. Fj 
Typhlops horsjieldii (Gray), figs. E, E'; Typhlops hraminus (Baud.), fig. I; 
Typhlops minis (Jan),' fig. II ; Onychocephalus acutus (D. & B.), fig. A. 
Giinther, 1. c., has identified Typhlops russellii (Gray) and Onychocephalus 
westermanni (Liitken) with Onychocephalus acutus (D. & B.), which has the 
priority. 
New genera and species : — - 
Anomalepisy g. n., Jan, 1. c. p. 6. Teeth in the upper jaw only; ocular 
plate not entering the labial margin ; head shielded above ; two upper labials : 
A. mcxicanus. 
The following new species of Typhlops are described and 
figured by Jan : —
