Description. — Adult male, USNM 9G781 (paratype), Alto de Serra, 

 Sao Paulo. Vomerine teeth in two heavy, well-separated, anteriorly 

 converging patches behind the posterior level of the choanae; tongue 

 about three-fifths the width of mouth-opening, cordiform, with an 

 indentation on its partially free posterior border; snout moderately 

 elongate, bluntly pointed when viewed from above, truncate and 

 sloping backwards in profile, the upper jaw scarcely extending beyond 

 the lower; nostrils more lateral than superior, slightly projecting, their 

 distance from end of snout about one-third that to eye, separated from 

 each other by an interval equal to two-thirds their distance from eye. 

 Canthus rostralis poorly defined, loreal region flat and sloping out- 

 wards. Eye large, very prominently bulging, its diameter three- 

 fourths its distance from end of snout; interorbital diameter about Iji 

 times that of upper eyelid, which is very narrow, much greater than 

 distance between nostrils. Tympanum large, very distinct, equal to 

 three-fourths the eye-diameter, separated from eye by an interval 

 equal to one-third its own diameter. Fingers one-third webbed, 

 fourth much longer than second, reaching halfway on disk of third, 

 which covers about one-half the tympanic area; a pronounced dermal 

 ridge along outside of forearm, extending along outer finger; no pro- 

 nounced rudiment of a pollex; toes slightly more than one-half webbed, 

 third and fifth subequal, disk of fourth covering one-half the tympanic 

 area; a very pronounced, almost sharp-edged inner metatarsal tubercle 

 but no outer one; a rather faintly marked narrow ridge along inside of 

 tarsus, and another equally faint along the outside; a similar ridge on
