SALIENTIAN RANGE EXTENSIONS 



The tadpoles from Major County constitute the only specimens from 

 northwestern Oklahoma. There is, however, a sight record from Harper 

 County, still farther westward.

Blaine (2). Rogers (C), Greer (T). 



The tadpoles from Greer County give us the hrst record in Oklahoma 

 west of the Wichita Mountains of Comanche County. They were taken in 

 a large, clear-water cattle tank in mesquite-savannah three miles west of 

 Mangum on Oklahoma Highway 9. 



13. Pseudacn's triseriata (Wied). 



Pushmataha (2), Okmulgee (T), Okfuskee (T). 



14. Rana catesbeiana Shaw. 



Greer (T), Jefferson (S), Bryan (S), Craig (1), Johnston (1), King- 

 fisher (S), Love (S), Major (S), Noble (S), Ottawa (1), Tillman (1), 

 Haskell (S). 



Twelve scattered counties in Oklahoma now remain without some kind 

 of record of the bullfrog. It is almost certainly state-wide in distribution. 



15. Kana berlandieri Baird. 



Bryan (2), Canadian (S), Craig (1), Ellis (2), Haskell (1), Mcintosh 

 (S). 



Valid records based on specimens now exist for all but four scattered 

 counties in Oklahoma. In all of these we now have sight records. Hence it 

 is now certain that this frog occurs in all counties of the state. 



16. Scaphiopus bombijrons Cope. 



Garvin (T), Harmon (T), Jackson (T), Love (T), Roger Mills (T)} 



17. Scaphiopus hammondii Baird. 



Beckham (T), Greer (T), Texas (T)} 



Several pools in the gypsum hill regions of Beckham and Greer coun- 

 ties had tadpoles of both the above species of spadefoots, all far along in de- 

 velopment. All pools on the clay soils to the east of this region that had spade- 

 foot tadpoles contained only 5. bombijrons. Since bombijrons has been known 

 in this region for a long time (and is abundant) whereas this is the first 

 record of hammondii south of the counties bordering Kansas, at least one 

 hundred miles to the north, it may be that the western spadefoot is here lim- 

 ited mostly to these hills.
