I have been induced to add to the foregoing list the following
observations on the more obscure and hitherto unknown genera and species.

RONIA, Gray. Head rather shelving, shielded with one transverse frontal
and two large vertebral plates, the hinder largest; the rostral plates
large, with two unequal superciliary plates. The nasal plate triangular,
interposed between the rostral plate and the frontal ones, with the
nostrils in its centre; loreal plates two, square; labial plates large;
ears none, only a very indistinct sunk dot in their place. Body
cylindrical; tail conical, tapering. Scales smooth, ovate, imbricate,
those of the belly 6-sided. The front limbs very small, rudimentary,
undivided; the hinder limbs moderately developed, ending in two very
unequal toes, with distinct claws.

35. Ronia catenulata, Gray, t. 4 f. 1.

Back grey, with eight series of small black dots, one dot on the centre
of each scale; cheeks black speckled; sides and beneath whitish.

Body 3 1/2, tail 2 1/2 inches.

Inhabits Western Australia. Mr. J. Gould.

The scales under the tail are rather larger, and the spots on the tail
are also rather larger than those on the back.

38. Lialis burtonii, t. 3 f. 1. Gray Proceedings of the Zoological
Society 1834 134. Dumeril and Bibron H. R. 831.

Pale brown, back with three longitudinal brown streaks, each occupying
half of two series of scales; the centre streak divided into two over the
nape and head, uniting together again over the tip of the nose.

Inhabits Western Australia. J. Gould.

Family Pygopidae.

Head short, with two or three pairs of narrow frontal shields, similar
to, and behind the nasal shield, with two odd large vertebral shields;
nostrils oblong, in the suture between the outer angle of the nasal
shield and the front loreal shields; ears distinct
