Mr. Sowerby collected three good specimens of this interesting 

 species on the north bank of Yalu Kiver, the boundary between JSIan- 

 churia and Korea, about 180 miles from its mouth. It is closely re- 

 lated to the Japanese Rana rugosa as noted by the original describer,

^ So written in the original description. In his Fauna Rossij, Amph., 1918, Nikolski 

 twice spells it Iliampo. It is said to be a station on the East Chinese Railroad, but I have 

 been unable to locate it. I have only found a station Imenpo on the road bel:ween Harbin 

 and Vladivostok.
