ties East of tlie Hooghly much rarer, than the latter species. There are 
evidently two distinct races : a smaller and almost uniform coloured va- 
riety, occurring all through the Central Provinces and extending northwards 
to the haso of the hills at Hardwar, and westward probably into southern 
Panjab ; and a larger, and generally striped, variety, occurring eastwards 
all through Bengal, As&m and extending into Pegu. 
Beddome (Madras Journ. Med. Sc. for 1871) appears to question 
the distinctness of macularius from carinatus ( = rufescens), but there can, 
I believe, be no doubt on that point. Whether his 5-keeled specimens are 
carinatus , and the 7-keeled ones true macularius, must be decided on a re-exa- 
mination of his specimens. Both species often occur together. 
Ettpbepes [Tjxiqua] CAMNATirs, Schneider. 
Colour above brown or olive brown, with or without dark edgings to 
the scales, a pale band on the edges of the back ; upper half of sides blackish 
with or without white spots, lower half pale, a short pale streak from ear to 
shoulder ; below whitish, tinged with orange or red in males during breeding 
season, particularly at the sides of the belly. This is the usual colouration 
in specimens from Bengal, Central Provinces, Dakhin (at Puna) and Bombay. 
(Comp. Gunther, L 1!., p. 79 and Blanford, J. A. S. B., 1870, xxxix, pt. ii, 
p. 356). Specimens from Burma and the Malayan Archipelago are very 
similarly coloured (see J. A. S. B., xxxix, pt. ii, p. 169). Bengal specimens, 
of which I examined a very large number, have quite as often 5 as 3 keels 
on the scales, those from the Dakhin (Dekhan) and Bombay are mostly only 
tliree-keeled. As a rule there are 32 longitudinal rows of scales round the 
middle of the body in full grown specimens, in younger ones often 30, very 
rarely only 28.

This is undoubtedly a species distinct from Tiliqua carinata, and in part 
combining the characters of the latter, and of T. monticola which it con- 
siderably resembles in coloration. I received two specimens from Puna (in the 
Dakhin, =Dekhan) through my collector. They are both young, only 4 ‘ inches 
long, but when compared with equally large specimens of carinata, the head 
is, as stated by Jerdon, shorter and somewhat higher, the rostral is flattened 
above, the supranasals form a distinct suture, frontals proportionately smaller, 
(the anterior in one specimen obliquely divided in two shields), posterior 
frontals form a suture, the vertical is longer and posteriorly narrower, than in 
any specimens of T. carinata I saw. The other shields of the head do not dif- 
fer. Edge of ear in front with 3 or 4 small, pointed, subequal lobules. Scales
