2ll LIST OF THE SNAKES AT PRESENT KNOWN TO INHABIT SIAM. HY "MA.I;('OLM 1:-iMITH, M.H.C.s., I H.C'.l'. Since Captain.Flower published his paper upon the l-teptilt>s of the Malay Peninsula and Siam. (Ptac. Zool. Soc. ],unr.lon. 1/?9[J, pp. 600-696) no work of any kind has appeared dealing with the :<nakes of this country. His paper, moreover, as fat as Siam is coneemecl, is obscured by the fact that the two regions to which he ret'e1 s are taken together instead of sepamtely, and without going through it in cletail it is impossible to see what actually belongs to each countt y. A g1 eat many specie:;; luwe been added since that time, pm ticulal'ly in the last. two years by t.lte members of our Society, and 1 thet efore take this opportunity of publishing a new list, complete, as fat as possible, up to date. The recently issued volume upvn the B.eptiles and lhtl'achians of the 1\blay Peninsula, sets the northem limit of that region at the Isthmus of Kra, thus inclttding a portion of 8iam. A certain amount. of overlapping in the lists of the species of the two countr i e >~ is therefot e inevitable, and in order to avoid confusion I have adhered to that boundat y, and have noted, with regard to all species acided since Flower's time, whether they wel'e obtained North ot Houth of that li lle'. Flower's original paper containe1l G7 species ft om Siam. ln the preseuti list t hey have no mark attached to them. Various expeditions to the Siamese Malay States, particulal'l.1 one by Messrs. Robinson and A.nuandale to Patani in 1903 ( Fr.Mcicnli llfalayenses, ;l;oology, Vol. I, pp. 131-176), have added anothe1 16 tu that number. These are marked with a t 25 more may now be inclndecl, bringing the total nnmbet uf species up to 98. Those obtained North of the l~thmus of Km are marked with a ", those South of it with a
