The horns are well developed, and the temporal region is expanded and produced on each side, resembling in this resi)ect tlu- A. maccaUii. Three temporal plates especially prominent, the last developed into a horn which equals the occipital in length. Like the occipitals they are divergent, and not parallel, as is the case in A. modesta. Posterior superciliary angle prominent, but not produced. Three last infralabials prominently angulate, the last produced, and. Fig. 80. Anota GOODEI Stejneger. Sonora. Cat. No. 8567, not followed by a spine. On the side of the neck two longitudinal folds, one above the other, each supporting a row of spinous scales. Muzzle concavely truncate, descending steeply from a transverse inter- preorbital angle Scales of top of head rugose. Supraorbitals partly or quite separated by a single row of scales; anterior and posterior superciliaries in contact. Gulars subequal. Dorsal scales unequal, the lateral smallest, the largest median keeled. Five or six rows of distant scales much larger than the rest on each side of the median line, their ai)ices moderately prominent. The scales of the single row forming the lateral fringe are very prominent and acute. Scales of inferior surfaces smooth, except those of the tibia and feet, which are keeled; those of the belly about equal to those of.
