Winkelkopfagamen Specimens of Hypsilurus spp. corresponding to sequences deposited on GenBank were re-examined. The voucher specimens relating to GenBank sequences were tracked down and their species status confirmed. Sequences reported in earlier publication as H. “bruijnii” and H. “nigrigularis” turned out to be those of H. magnus and H. schultzewestrumi instead. Further confusion surrounded specimens of H. modestus, H. dilophus and H. papuensis. Based on these results a new phylogenetic tree was constructed and the genus name Lophosaurus Fitzinger, 1843 was resurrected.

We describe a new species of agamid lizard of the genus Hypsilurus from northern Papua New Guinea. The new species is characterized by its small adult size, scalational features, small nuchal and dorsal crests, and distinctive dorsal color pattern of brown and white chevrons. It is a member of the H. godeffroyi species group, but otherwise, its closest relative is not obvious. The species is currently known from two of the outlying North Coast ranges, but following the pattern seen in several other species endemic to this region, it will likely prove to occur along much of the northern lowlands of New Guinea.

The type specimens of the agamid lizard Hypsilurus godeffroyi (Peters 1867) are supposedly from Palau, but have never been seen or collected there again. The Godeffroy catalogues indicate that the data provided for these specimens by the collector, Alfred Tetens, may have been inaccurate. Tetens also traveled to the Anchorite, Hermit, and Ninigo Groups off the northern New Guinea coast and we hypothesize that one of these areas is the true origin of the types of H. godeffroyi. The collections of Tetens and Jan Kubary, both employees of the Godeffroy firm, provided the basis for the first published lists of the herpetofauna of Palau. Among other species, these collectors of the 1860s and 1870s confirmed the occurrence of two of lizards not rediscovered until well into the 20th Century. WORRELL, E.

Pseudabbreviata novaeguineaensis n. sp. from the stomach of Hypsilurus modestus (Agamidae) from Papua New Guinea is described and illustrated. The new species was also found in the stomach of Hypsilurus papuensis from Papua New Guinea. Pseudabbreviata novaeguineaensis n. sp. represents the sixth species assigned to the genus and the first from the Australo-Papuan Region. The new species differs from other species assigned to Pseudabbreviata by the vulva position in the female and pedunculate papillae arrangement in the male tail morphology. In addition to the new species, H. modestus harbored Meteterakis crombiei, Strongyluris gonyocephali, and larvae of Abbreviata sp. (in cysts).
