The plt.legend docstring says
To make a legend for a list of lines and labels::
legend( (line1, line2, line3), ('label1', 'label2', 'label3') )
So I would try something along the lines of
# plot lines
line1 = ax.plot(...)
...
linen = ax.plot(...)
lineleg = ax.legend((line1, ..., linen), ('linelabel1', ...))
# plot symbols
symb1 = ax.plot(...)
...
symbn = ax.plot(...)
symbleg = ax.legend((symb1, ..., symbn), ('symblabel1', ...))

Want excitement?
Manually upgrade your production database.
When you want reliability, choose Perforce
Perforce version control. Predictably reliable.
