Back of male warty, with rows of large glandular tubercles with an 

 apical pore interspersed. Limbs above covered with smaller glandular 

 tubercles ; parotoids ridge-like, running from the upper margin of 

 orbit, and shelving down a little ; snout blunt. Nostril lateral below 

 a most indistinct canthus rostralis. Skin beneath smooth with four 

 embedded callous plates like the plates of Emyda when dried. Plates

 so marked in the male.
