FASCICULI MALATENSES

of which we did not obtain a specimen, is somewhat sporadically distributed 
in the Patani States, occurring in fair numbers on the trunks of the cocoanut 
and betel palms in some villages, while apparently absent from others. When 
seated on the trunks of these trees, however, its coloration and the immova- 
bility of its pose render it practically invisible. On the coast of Trang it is 
very abundant in the villages, as it is in many parts of Perak — though we did 
not happen to see it in that state — and Selangor, as well as in Singapore and 
Penang.’

Bukit Besar. 2,500 feet.

Semangko Pass, Selangor-Pahang border. 2,700 feet. 
‘ I took the specimen representing this species ; it was seated on a 
chair in the Government Resthouse, on the Semangko Pass, and was very 
sluggish. I have noticed the same sluggishness in the case of the North 
Australian G. hoydi. Young individuals were not uncommon in the neigh- 
bourhood, and were exceedingly active and difficult to capture.’ H. C. R.

Batang Padang, South Perak. 
32. Gonyocephalus grandis, Gray 
Batang Padang, South Perak. 
‘ The specimens in our collection of this and the preceding species were 
shot by the Sakais with their blowguns. For one of them we are indebted 
to Mr. G. B. Cerruti, late Superintendent of Sakais, who also presented us 
with other zoological specimens from the same district.’ 
33. Acanthosaura armata, Gray 
Bukit Besar ; 2,500 feet. 
‘ I found the specimen digging for earth worms in a small bare patch in 
the jungle. It had evidently been successful, as its stomach was full of earth. 
Apparently only its fore limbs were used in digging. When disturbed it 
rushed into a hole in a tree trunk. Another specimen was seen on Bukit 
Besar, clinging to the stem of a sapling. When a hand was stretched out to 
seize it, it dropped rather than leaped into the undergrowth.
