The variation in apollinaris is in the direction of the pattern in biporcatus, but there is no overlap. This is a sharp and clear distinction. 2. Supraciliary scales (Fig. 4). Again the pattern of this area tends to be species specific and again the condition in apollinaris tends to be simpler and perhaps more primitive than that of bipor- catus. The common pattern in biporcatus is indeed unusual (though not unique). Two patterns are common for the supracihary region of anoles: (1) one or more elongate supraciliaries followed by un- differentiated granules; (2) one or more elongate supraciliaries followed by a double series of enlarged scales rather even in Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Harvard University.
