62 BULLETI^r 58^ UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM. 



panum very distinct, circular, nearly as large as the diameter of the 

 eye, its distance from the latter less than half its own diameter, its 

 distance from the labial edge slightly less than the diameter; paro- 

 toid glands rather long and narrow, more than two and a half times 

 as long as wide; fore legs long and stout; fingers with slight webs at 

 the base, tips rounded, third longest, second shortest, and consider- 

 abl}^ shorter than first; two large palmar tubercles, the inner one 

 particularly prominent with a cutting edge, resembling the inner 

 metatarsal tubercle; nuptial asperities on the inner side of this 

 tubercle, on the inner and upper sides of first and second fingers and 

 on the inner side of the third finger; heels not meeting when folded 

 hind legs are placed perpendicular to the axis of the body; toes one- 

 third webbed, the web extending only as far as the first basal joint of 

 the third toe and one-half the first basal joint of the fourth toe; inner 

 metatarsal tubercle large, with prominent cutting edge, longer than 

 the first toe; outer metatarsal tubercle smaller, rounded, prominent, 

 but less so than the imfer one; no tarsal fold; some of the subarticu- 

 lar tubercles double both under fingers and toes; back covered by 

 numerous round tubercles of various sizes, none as large as the tym- 

 panum, all rather smooth and not arranged symmetrically, though 

 the larger ones are more numerous toward the sides of the back; 

 under side divided up into small areas by innumerable transverse 

 furrows, each area having one or more small granules or tubercles 

 with a small brown horny tip, these tips becoming larger and almost 

 spiny on the hind legs. Color (in alcohol) on upper side of body 

 nearly uniform sepia; from the posterior corner of the eye backward, 

 margining the lower edge of the parotoid and along the sides of the 

 body to the groin a wide, sharply contrasted, black band; above the 

 latter on the side a smoke-gray border fading into the sepia of the 

 back; a narrow black streak on the lower jaw along its whole length; 

 underside of body and limbs dirty whitish with large strongly defined 

 vermiculations and anastomizing black spots, contiguous with similar 

 though less sharply defined spots on the upper surface of hands and 

 feet; palmar and metatarsal tubercles as well as tips of fingers and toes 

 raw umber.
