Diagnosis. — Unlike any other West Indian Eleutherodactylus hereto- 

 fore described in possessing large, compact, conspicuous glands above 

 the arm, in front of the groin, and on the whole posterior surface of 

 the femur. Belly and thighs almost smooth, with a few minute 

 glandules on the belly and some very small granules apparent on the 

 distal lower part of the thighs; upper eyelid without a spinelike 

 tubercle; toes and fingers rounded at the tips; snout relatively long, 

 rounded in profile, not shovel-shaped; tibiotarsal articulation reaching 

 to end of snout; size large, 56 mm. from snout to vent. 



Type. — M.C.Z. No. 19851, an adult male from the north and east 

 foothills of Massif de la Hotte, Haiti, between 1,000 and 4,000 feet, 

 collected in October 1934 by P. J. Darlington. 



Description of the type. — Tongue subcylindrical, moderately broad, 

 not emarginate behind; vomerine teeth in two heavy, triangular, 

 rather slanting patches behind the choanae, well separated in the 

 midline and extending to the level of the outer margins of the choanae; 

 head moderate, without ridges, its greatest width equal to distance 

 from end of snout to occiput; no apparent subgular pouch or chest 

 fold ; nostril separated from eye by three times its distance from end of 

 snout; upper eyelid about one-half the interorbital width; tympanum 

 equal to one-half the diameter of the eye, its distance from the eye 

 about equal to its own diameter; first finger slightly shorter than 

 second, with a rudiment of a web between them; disks of fingers 

 rather small, that of third finger scarcely covering one-quarter of the 

 tympanic area; disks of the toes considerably smaller; toes long, with 

 a very slight web; first toe reaching only to penultimate phalanx of 

 second toe; subarticular tubercles well developed; two metatarsal 

 tubercles, the outer small, the inner large and prominent; no plantar 

 tubercles; a pronounced tarsal ridge; femur relatively long; the limbs 

 being pressed along the sides, the knee and elbow slightly overlap;
