    My friend and former colleague, Mr. G. B. Howes, rendered me much assistance in preparing and correcting those parts of the directions which were drawn up in England, and has also given considerable aid to my brother in working out some doubtful points which arose, while the work was passing through the press. I am further indebted to Mr. Howes for the drawing for Fig. 34, and to my brother for Fig. 32. Figs. 35, 36, and 37 are copied from my father’s monograph on the Lizard’s skull {Phil. Trans. 1879), and Fig. 38 from Herpetologia Europcea ; the remaining illustrations are from my own drawings. The whole of them have been drawn on the wood by Mr. Coombs, and engraved by Mr. Cooper: judging from the few proofs which have so far reached me, I have every reason to be grateful to those gentlemen for the care and skill with which their work has been done.
