 rior margin, raised on a not very apparent stalk; a single, low, toothlike 

 prominence on anterior border of lower jaw; snout rounded but not 

 blunt when seen from above, sloping forwards to upper lip, which is 

 thickened but has no prominent rim, the upper jaw scarcely projecting 

 beyond lower; nostrils small, superior, separated from each other by an 

 interval equal to their distance from eye. Can thus rostralis not 

 evident; loreal region slightly concave and sloping outwards almost 

 horizontally. Eye large, prominent, its diameter slightly greater 

 than its distance from nostril, about thi-ee-fourths its distance from 

 end of snout; interorbital diameter a little greater than upper eyelid, 

 considerably greater than distance between nostrils. Tympanum not 

 visible. Fingers fairly long, free, without any trace of lateral fringes, 

 without disks, second slightly shorter than fourth and reaching to base 

 of antepenultimate phalanx of third; no pronounced pollex, but the 

 palmar tubercles very well developed, as well as the sabarticular
