FROGS OF COLOMBIA — COCHRAN AND GOLN 389 



agrees with that species in having a similar arrangement of disks on 

 the fingers. Dunn considered it as the respresentative of noblei on 

 Darien, Panama. 



The closest relative of E. brederi, however, appears to be E. achatinus 

 (Boulenger), described first from Cachabe, western Ecuador. Boulen- 

 ger's figures of the type are identical in pattern with ANSP 24392 

 (from near Bogota), which Dunn identified as brederi. The chief 

 differences, as taken from the respective original descriptions, are as 

 follows: 



Character E. brederi E. achatinus 



Snout \]/2 times diameter of eye. Equal to diameter of eye. 



Interorbital 1}^ to nearly 2 times width Equal to width of upper 



diameter of upper eyelid. eyelid. 



Tympanum Two-thirds the diameter of One-third to one-half the 



eye. diameter of eye. 



Toe disks Moderate in size. Small. 



In addition, critical measurements show the foot averaging shorter in 

 brederi and longer in achatinus.
