Description of a new Species of Anolis, with Notice of some other Species of that Genus from Ecuador. By A. W . E. O ' S H A U G H N E S S Y , Assistant in the Natural History Departments, British Museum. [Received June 14, 1880.] (Plate XLIX.) In the collection of zoological objects made by Mr. Buckley in Ecuador, which has proved singularly rich in new and remarkable forms among the lizards, I find represented the following species of Anolis. From Canelos :- ANOLIS CHRYSOLEPIS, D. & B. Erp. Gen. iv. p. 94; Guich. in Casteln. Amer. du Sud, pl. 4. f. 1. The Anolis scypheus, Cope, must be considered identical with this species, if we may judge from some specimens in the British Museum to which Mr. Cope some years ago affixed that name. ANOLIS NUMMIFER, O'S., = vittigerus, Cope, part. ANOLIS PENTAPRION, Cope, Proc. Ac. Phil. 1862, p. 178. ANOLIS NASICUS, D. & B. 1. c. p. 115; Guichen. I. c. pl. 4. fig. 2. From Pallatanga :- ANOLIS CHRYSOLEPIS, D. & B. ANOLIS VIRIDI/ENEUS, Peters, MB. Ak. Berl. 1863, p. 147. ANOLIS BOUVIERI, Bocourt, Miss. Scient. Mex. iii. p. 58, pl. figs. 8, 8a. In addition to the above, the same collection contains two specimens of a beautiful Anolis, which I have no hesitation in pronouncing a new species, and which I now proceed to describe. |
