Diplodactylus michaelseni, Werner, was described from Denham, 
while Messrs. Lucas and Frost’s type of D. bilineatns came from 
Carnarvon. The type specimen of Dr. Gray’s D. bilineatns {Phyl- 
lodactylus ocellatus, Gray, fide Boulenger was described from 
Houtman Abrolhos, and recorded by Dr. Gunther from Champion 
Bay, and by Dr. Werner ® from Boorabbin, Coolgardie Goldfield.

In the collection is a single female example of this widely dis- 
tributed species from the Strelley River, Pilbara. It presents the 
colour variety noted and figured by Messrs Lucas and Frost. In 
all structural characters it agrees with the variable P. variegatus, 
but the colour pattern is so different that I propose to distinguish 
it under the varietal name of punctatus. The following short 
diagnosis will serve to define this form. 
Upper surfaces russet brown, lighter on the snout, with trans- 
verse rows of silvery and yellowish spots. The spots are more 
abundant on the limbs. Black spots may be distributed all over 
the dorsal surface or they may be confined to two rows, one each 
side of the vertebral column, between the rows of lighter spots. 
Sometimes two faint streaks of brown on the loreal region, the 
upper continuing behind the eye to above the ear opening.

Snout projecting, slightly hooked and trilobed ; a little more 
than three times the diameter of the eye. Eye considerably longer 
than its distance from the mouth, surrounded by a ring of small 
scales, of which the posterior are the largest. Portion of the rostral 
seen from above is once and one half as long as its distance from 
the frontal, once and a quarter as broad as long, as long as the
