An Account of the Reptiles and Batrachians collected by Mr. C. Hose on Mt. Dulit, Borneo. By G. A. BOULENGER. [Received June 7, 1892.] (Plates XXIX. & XXX.) Two small sets of Reptiles and Batrachians from Mt. Dulit", Sarawak, have been received from Mr. Hose and are now incorporated in the British Museum collection. The first, received in August 1891, contained examples of a single new species (Rana hosii, Bouleng. Ann. & Mag. N. H. [6] viii. 1891, p. 290). The second, received a few days ago, is much more valuable, as it adds three new species to the fauna of Borneo, among which is a remarkable form of Varanus. I now proceed to give a complete list of the species represented in Mr. Hose's collection. REPTILES. 1. GYMNODACTYLUS MARMORATUS, Kuhl. 2. GECKO STENTOR, Cantor. 3. GECKO MONARCHUS, Schleg. 4. PTYCHOZOON HORSFIELDII, Gray. Dr. F. Miiller will shortly show that this species, established and then withdrawn by Gray, is distinct from P. homalocephalum, Crev. A single specimen, a male, is in Mr. Hose's collection. 5. DRACO QUINOUEFASCIATUS, Gray. 6. GONYOCEPHALUS GRANDIS, Gray. 1 Hylomys is similar to Gymnura, except that mi3 is absent and mp2 is functional. 2 For information as to the exact position of this mountain we refer the reader to p. 221 of the present volume. |
