[No. 1, 
inferior rostral, the second is smaller, generally only half the size of the first, 
each shield rounded, placed immediately below its respective first chin-sliield, 
but separatedfrom the second lower labial by a smaller shield ; a row of slightly 
enlarged shields adjoining the lower labials ; scales on the throat very small, 
flattened, those on the belly much larger and roundly hexagonal, and in about 
36 longitudinal, alternating series ; a median row of transversely enlarged sub- 
caudals. The ear opening is moderate, rounded ; the glands in the place of the 
paratoids very large, occupying abnost the whole of the side of the neck ; toes 
elongate, united with a short web at the base, provided with rather coarse lamel- 
lae, there being 9 or 10 pairs of them on the fourth toe ; nearly the first half 
of the lamellae on all the toes is either undivided or only slightly grooved ; 
thumb well developed, with a minute claw. Out of 10 specimens examined 
of various sizes none had femoral pores, but the scales in the preanal region are 
conspicuously enlarged in all. 
Grey, more or less densely marbled and punctated with blackish brown 
and spotted with pale white. Generally the brown colour is arranged in 
6 or 8 longitudinal stripes, more distinctly regular in young than in old 
specimens, and these stripes are separated by irregular, alternate rows of 
white spots ; limbs, and tail at the base above, also white spotted, upper labials 
brown ; paratoids yellowish brown ; lower side uniform white, most of the 
scales very minutely punctated. 
I Lab. I have obtained a few specimens at Pankabari, just above the Sik- 
kim Terai, and Mr. Mandelli sent me several from the i tungnu and Tista val- 
leys, where the species occurs between 1,000 and 3,000 feet. The body of the 
largest measures 2\, tail 3, = 51 niches. As nearly half of the plates below 
the toes are undivided, the species forms a connecting link between the section 
Dory ura and those small species of Geckos which are represented by G. 
Swinhoenis, and are mostly peculiar to Southern China, Japan and adjacent 
islands.

Unless authentic specimens are received, it will be difficult to identify 
this species from Theobald’s description. It appears to be somewhat allied 
to II. Mmdellianus, but the edges of the tail are said to be in the former 
minutely “ denticulate with an obsolete marginal spine “ sides” of body 
“ keeled” and “ femoral pores nineteen on each thigh,” &c. “ Grey with 
no definite markings.” Body equal to tail.

Back granular, regularly shagreened with about twenty longitudinal 
rows of small whitish tubercles,” &c.
