those obtaining in the typical L. viridis LAUR. — Limbs medium sized, as stated by BLANFORD (1, p. 124, footnote), not long, as indicated by DE MÉHELY regarding the young (11, p. 594); claw of fourth finger of rostrad adduced fore limb reaching to about the anterior border of 4 TH supralabial (which is the last of the set anterior to subocular); in BLANFORD'S type specimen (?) the 4 TH finger is stated to reach the nostril; claw of fourth toe of rostrad adduced hind limb not quite reaching the axillar groove; in this respect there seems to exist, in this species, contrarily to the conditions met with in many other Lacertae, no serious difference between the two sexes, for both BLANFORD and BOULENGER communicate similar data with respect to the female; according to DE MÉHELY the 4 TH toe reaches, in the young, the collar. — Tail rather massive, distal part wanting; its length is said to be, in the female, a little more (BLANFORD 3 ) or a little less (BOULENGER) than twice the length of from snout to vent. (No length is indicated, by DE MÉHELY, regarding the young.) Measurements 4 of the Male in the Vienna Nat. Hist. Museum : Total length 395 mm Length of head 36 „ Width of head 25 Heigth of head (from mouth to lateral border of parietal) 12 „ From anterior corner of eye to tip of snout 14.4 „ From posterior corner of eye to tympanum 14.5 „ From snout to vent 143 „ Tail (broken) cca 252 Fore limb (from axillar groove to point of 4 TH finger's claw) 46 „ Hind limb (from groin to point of 4 TH toe's claw) 78.5 „ Foot (from very basis of 1 ST toe to point of 4 HT toe's claw) 40.2 „ Lepidosis: Rostral largely entering the nostril which is pierced between 5 shields; nasals forming a rather long suture behind the rostral, thus separating it from the frontonasal; in the female examined by 8 BLANFORD gives the measurements in inches. 4 Dr. v. WETTSTEIN kindly communicated to me these measurements.
