5 GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF AUSTRALIAN BATRACHIA, 



(t) From Yass (collected by Mr. W. W. Froggatt). 



Limnodynastes tasmaniensis Crinia signifera 



dorsalis Pseudojjhryne hibronii 



Hyla ewingii, var. B (one specimen). 



Syla aurea was seen also, but specimens were not brought. 

 As in the collection from Lucknow, H. ewingii var., is here 

 associated with some of the widely distributed species which are 

 to be met with in any tolerably complete inland collection. 



One or more specimens of a single species from a single station 

 have been received as follows : — Limnodynastes dorsalis, Cooma 

 (Dr. Cobb), Cowra (Rev. A. Fletcher) ; L. tasmaniensis, Weut- 

 worth, N.S.W. (Mr. A. Sidney OUiff) ; Cryptotis brevis, Gosford 

 (Mr. C. T. Masson). A third instalment of frogs from Dandaloo 

 yielded nothing not previously sent : a supplementary collection 

 forwarded by Mr. Sloane from Emu Plains, Tirana,, contained 

 specimens of Hyla peronii, not previously obtained. Quite recently 

 on the Blue Mts. I have found both Limnodynastes tasmaniensis 

 and Hyla dentata to occur. 



Two collections from South Queensland — one from the coast, 

 the other from inland — may here be recorded. 



(a) From Pim]iama, S. of Brisbane (collected by Miss A. 

 Harding). 



Limnodynastes peronii Hyperolia marmorata 



Cryptotis brevis Pseudophryne coriacea 



Hyla lesueurii 



This collection was obtained during a very unfavourable season, 

 and does not at all satisfactorily represent the batrachian fauna 

 of the district. No peculiar Queensland species are included ; 

 otherwise, as far as it goes, it shows a fauna very similar to tliat 

 of our northern river districts, as was to be expected .
