Remarks.—The type specimen has been injured by rubbing, 
after having been preserved, and there is some doubt as to the 
correctness of certain minor characters. However, the species 
is very distinct, and I have no hesitancy in describing it from 
a single specimen. 
After a very heavy rain and hail storm I heard the frogs in 
the small gullies along the mountain trail. I endeavored to 
locate them by following up their thin, high-pitched voices. 
Although the frogs were very close to me, I could not find them. 
Later in the afternoon several were heard on the bank of a 
small mountain stream which crosses the trail near kilometer 
101. The bank was covered with moss. I stood in the icy 
water and began to dig in the bank; after half an hour’s work, 
realizing that I must reach camp before dark, I gave up. On 
starting to pick up my gun, which I had laid on a narrow ledge, 
I found the tiny frog sitting on my gun stock. 
The species apparently belongs in the genus Cornufer, al- 
though I do not feel wholly certain. More material may warrant 
a different generic designation. The vomerine teeth are dif- 
ferent from those of other species of Cornufer—in fact, I am 
not certain that the slightly rugose area should really be re- 
garded as vomerine teeth. 
Polypedates pardalis (Giinther).

Specimens of this species were collected at Balbalan, Kalinga, 
northern Luzon; on Polillo Island; and at Port Holland, Ba- 
silan. Four Kalinga specimens were collected at night on April 
28, from rain pools in which they were breeding. Kaloula rigida 
Taylor and Polypedates leucomystax (Gravenhorst) were breed- 
ing in the same pools. 
When first taken, the specimens were nearly uniform yellow. 
Later the live specimens became reddish brown, with markings 
more or less distinct. The bellies were white to cream, rather 
than yellow. Three specimens taken in Polillo in July, 1920,
