The upper labials are 7-7, the lower 8-8; the preoculars 1-1, the 3-3; the anterior temporals 2-2, the posterior, 2-3. The scales are 19-17-15, with all but the outer row keeled at midbody. There are 148 ventrals and 65 subcaudals. The anal is divided and the total length is 283 mm., of which is occupied by the tail. The specimen is a Fig. 8. Pseudoxenodon sinensis Boulenger. Dorsal, ventral, and lateral views of head, A. M. N. H. No. 12791, twice natural size. In order to make this matter doubly clear I will copy here Schmidt's (1927) table giving the counts and measurements for twenty-two speci- mens of sinensis from Yunnanfu.
