Body rather slender, very small, considerably depressed. Tail twice the head and body. Hind leg from knee equal to the head to ear. Dorsal scales in sixteen longitudinal and fifty-one oblique series; sixty- seven from chin to anus; tail with 127 whorls. Eight central or median dorsal rows of scales ob- tusely and faintly cari- nated (very obsoletely on the outer rows); central two or three rows on the tail similar; all the other scales perfectly smooth. Xasal plate applied only against the second labial and separated from the rostral. Three supple- mentary plates between rostral and internasal; the frontal hexagonal en- circled by six plates. Four postnasal, the up per posterior very large and superior. Four lore- als instead of one. Above light olive, with seven or eight obscure bars of darker, bordered before or behind with bars of the ground color, edged faintly with whit- ish. Beneath yellowish, marbled coarsely with olive. Head plain. Tail nearly uniform reddish olive. The single specimen of this subspecies exhibits peculiarities of cephalic plates which, if constant, will at once separate it from all other known North American Gerrhonoti. The head is depressed, running forward to an acute point; pyramidal; the length two-thirds the width, which is five-sevenths the length to ear, which in turn is rather more than one- fifth (about two-ninths) the head and body. The moutli is unusually pointed aud depressed. The dilference in the cephalic plates from those

I. Uocephalus. GERRHONOTUS LIOCEPHALUS INFERNALIS Baird. (ierrhonotrs UocephaltiK infernaUs Baird, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sei. Pbila., 1858, pág. 255. Cuerpo bastante delgado, muy pequeño, considerablemente deprimido. Cola dos veces la cabeza y el cuerpo. Pata trasera desde la rodilla igual a la cabeza a la oreja Escamas dorsales en dieciséis series longitudinales y cincuenta y una oblicuas, sesenta y siete desde el mentón hasta el ano, cola con verticilos 127. Ocho filas dorsales centrales o medianas de escamas ob- tusely y débilmente carinadas (muy obsoletas en las filas exteriores) ; centrales dos o tres filas en la cola similares; todas las demás escamas perfectamente lisas. Placa Xasal aplicada sólo contra el segundo labial y separada de la rostral. Tres placas suplementarias entre rostral e internasal; el hexágono frontal rodeado por seis placas. Cuatro postnasal, por posterior muy grande y superior. Cuatro lore- als en lugar de uno. Por encima de la luz de oliva, con siete u ocho oscuras barras de más oscuro, bordeada por delante o por detrás con barras del color de la tierra, bordeada débilmente con Pentecostés - ish Debajo de amarillento, m arbled toscamente con aceituna. Cabeza llana. Cola de color oliva rojizo casi uniforme. El único espécimen de esta subespecie exhibe peculiaridades de placas cefálicas que, si son constantes, lo separarán de inmediato de todos los demás Gerrhonoti norteamericanos conocidos. La cabeza está deprimida, avanzando hacia un punto agudo; piramidal; el largo es dos tercios del ancho, que es cinco séptimos del largo hasta la oreja, que a su vez es algo más de un quinto (alrededor de dos novenos) de la cabeza y el cuerpo. La boca es inusualmente puntiaguda y deprimida. La diferencia en las placas cefálicas de las
