ties, thou,2:li the following are represented by specimens in various 

 museums: In Kiusiu: Yamagawa and Miyazaki (U.S.N.M.), Mount 

 Onsen in Shimabara (Brit. Mus.); in Shikoku: Kochi (U.S.N.M.); in 

 Hondo: Nara, Koriyama, Simoda, Mount Fuji, and Yokohama 

 (U.S.N.M.), Kobe, Kiga, Daibutsu (Brit. Mus.), Setsu (Hamburg 

 jNIus.), Hakone (Senckenberg Mus.) : in Yezo: Hakodate and Sapporo 

 (IT.S.N.M.). There are also in British IMuseum specimens from 

 Tsu-shima collected by Hoist, and in Museum Senckenbergianum one 

 specimen from Goto Island, near Nagasaki. 



There is no record of the species in any of the Riu Kiu Islands or 

 Formosa. 



Outside of Japan it occurs in Korea, whence specimens are in the 

 United States National Museum (Fusan) and in the British Museum 

 (Gensan and Seoul) ; the Hamburg Museum also has specimens from 

 southern Korea, collected by Doctor Warburg. One specimen was 

 brought from Port Hamilton by ]\Ir. G. Stephen, together with the 

 type of" Hijla stepheni. 



The status of the Chinese specimens which have been referred to 

 this form is too uncertain to detain us here. It may be sufficient to 

 refer to w^hat is said under the heading of Hijla arhorea immaculata, 

 with the additional remark that the Hainan specimen belongs to the 

 recently described Hyla simjylex^ as suggested by Doctor Boettger.
