Habitat. — The only specimens until recently recorded as belonging 

 to this form are the ones mentioned above, one from Port Hamilton, 

 off the south end of Korea, and two from the middle Ussuri. In the 

 Hamburg Museum there are specimens from Khabarovka (No. 863) 

 as well as from Vladivostok (No. 864), collected by Dieckmann, which 

 are there referred to this species. Nikolski, in 1905, refers tree-toads 

 from as far west as Nertshinsk and the river Shilka, as well as the 

 Yezo specimens in the St. Petersburg Museum to this species.
