A. grilli differs from A. longicauda in having a larger external ear, larger than the in- terparietal scale rather than conspicuously smaller, in having an antehumeral-trans- verse gular fold, and a shorter tail (mean tail/total length in males , females , versus males , females ). Etymology. Named after Dr. G. Franco Grillo, collector of the syntypes. Description. Head (Fig. 4). Head scales small to moderate, smooth, swollen, vari- able in size. Rostral subpentagonal, twice to about three times as wide as high. Post- rostrals 6 or 7. Nasal ovoid, nostril slightly posterior in position, in contact with the first supralabial or separated from it by 1 scale, separated from the rostral by 1 post-.
