Description. — Adult male, USNM 96794, Alto da Serra, Sao Paulo. 

 Vomerine teeth in two short, heavy, transverse, narrowly separated 

 series just behind the posterior borders of the choanae ; tongue slightly 

 more than one-half the width of mouth opening, cordiform, slightly 

 notched on its free posterior border; snout moderate in length, slightly 

 pointed when viewed from above, rounded in profile, the upper jaw 

 scarcely extending beyond lower; nostrils distinctly lateral, promi- 

 nently projecting, their distance from end of snout about two-thirds 

 that to eye, separated from each other by an interval equal to a little 

 less than their distance from eye. Canthus rostralis sharp and very 

 prominent; loreal region flat and nearly vertical, with upper labial 

 border jutting out sharply below it. Eye large, very prominent, its 

 diameter slightly less than its distance from end of snout; interorbital 

 diameter somewhat greater than width of upper eyelid, slightly 

 greater than distance between nostrils. Tympanum very distinct, 

 equal to one-half the diameter of eye, separated from eye by an in- 

 terval equal to about one-third its own diameter. Fingers webbed 

 only at the base, fourth longer than second, reaching nearly to disk 

 of third which covers about two-thirds the tympanic area; a very 

 pronounced knoblike rudiment of a pollex; toes one-half webbed, 

 fifth slightly longer than third, disk of fourth covering two-thirds
