HYNOBIIDAE. 523 



slightly developed labial folds suggest a possible derivation from that 

 species. Batrachuperus is an animal of high altitudes and keyserlingii 

 is a northern form. There is no known geographical connection be- 

 tween the two at present. 



Besides the specimens listed below, it has been recorded from the 

 following places: 



Thibet: Province Kham ; Kuochu-chin (Guenther 1896). 

 China: Province Sze-chuan; Sungpan (Guenther 1890;; Kzerno 



River, Lumbu River (Bedriaga 1898). 

 Specimens seen: 6, as follows; 

 China: Province Sze-chuan; Moupin 1 (U. S. Nat. Mus. 10995, 



Cotype) Mt. Omei 4 (U. S. Nat. Mus. 04419-64422) Liang- 



ho-ko, 12000 feet alt. 1 (M. ( '. X. 2848). 



Note: Turanomolge mensbieri Nikolski (T918, Faune de la Russe, 

 p. 250, f 56, pi. 4, f. c .'i) described from 01 mm. long larvae col- 

 lected by V. Nikolski in Russian Turkestan, does not appear to me 

 to be a Hynobiid. It has long series of vomerine teeth posterior to 

 each naris, and no dorsal fin. I suggest that it is the larva of a 

 mountain brook Salamandrid, perhaps allied to Neuergus crocatus.
