Variation.—There are many specimens of this species from 
Mindoro, Lubang, Luzon, and Negros in the collections studied. 
They agree fairly well in proportions, but the specimen here - 
described is larger than any other in the collection.. The speci- 
mens from Negros appear to have a deeper head and body than 
do those from Luzon and Mindoro. Practically no two specimens 
can be found with the same color patterns. Some are deeply 
reticulated with brown below, others uniformly light with no 
markings; some show a certain regularity in the arrangement 
of the longitudinal folds on the shoulders; a few from various 
localities have narrow median lines on the body, and others are 
marked with two lateral lines; others are uniformly colored 
above. Obviously, color markings are very unreliable characters 
in this group of frogs. 
Remarks.—This species appears to be common in the localities 
named. The frogs are usually found moving about in the forest, 
away from the immediate vicinity of water. The type, collected 
by A. B. Meyer, is from “Laguna de Bay.” Specimens are re- 
ported by Boettger from Mindoro and Leyte. Apparently it is 
strictly a Philippine species.
