two slightly oblique series between the choanae ; tympanum distinct, 

 more than half the width of eye ; upper and lower surfaces, except of 

 hands and feet, granular; interorbital space slightly broader than 

 upper eyelid; largest digital disk nearly as large as tympanum; 

 tibio-tarsal joint reaching posterior angle of eye. 



Description of type specimen. — Vomerine teeth in two slightly 

 oblique series between and close to the choanae, each longer than the 

 distance between them ; profile, of snout abruptly declivous, almost 

 angular, from the nostrils; canthus rostralis sharp overhanging the 

 concave loreal region as a ridge; nostrils prominent, slightly nearer 

 the eye than the tip of the snout ; interorbital spaca wider than upper 

 eyelid; tympanum smooth, almost circular, about two-thirds the 

 diameter of the eye; fingers with well-developed dermal edges, 

 webbed one-half between third and fourth fingers, the web reaching 

 almost to the penultimate joints of both; between second and third 

 about one-third, reaching penultimate joint of second, but only basal 

 joint of third; between first and second only at the base; disks of 

 fingers very large, that of third finger nearly as large as tympanum, 

 that of first finger but slightly wider than finger itself; first finger 

 much shorter than and hardly reaching the middle of the penulti- 

 mate joint of the second ; toes more than two-thirds webbed, the 

 Aveb reaching the tip of the three inner toes; fifth toes longer than 

 third by about half the diameter of the disk; disks of toes scarcely 

 two-thirds the diameter of the finger disks; subarticular articula- 

 tions moderately prominent; inner metatarsal tubercle small, flat, 

 no outer metatarsal tubercle ; tibio-tarsal joints reach posterior angle 

 of eye and meet w^ithout overlapping when hind legs are placed ver- 

 tical to the axis of the body; a sharp, narrow dermal fold from eye 

 over tympanum to shoulder; skin above and below, except hands 

 and feet densely granulated, the granules rather roughly tubercular 

 on the upper surfaces, rounded underneath. 



Color (in alcohol) : Above purplish brown with indistinct and 

 irregular dusky markings and indication of cross bars on the legs; 

 underside whitish with small blackish spots on inner sides of arms, 

 thigh, tibia, and hind feet; sides whitish with blackish spots and 

 marblings which become coarser and more distinct posteriorly; lips 

 with indistinct dusky spots; at the base of the upper surface of first 

 and second fingers a very distinct white spot.
