1 This list is based on Colonel Beddome's List of the Frogs of the Nilgiris in the 

 " Manual of the Ni'lagiri District," (1880). I have omitted a species which is there recorded 

 as " Crinia (or allied genus) n.sp." and described as " a minute frog with free toes. No 

 parotids, maxillary teeth, and sacral vertebrae sometimes dilated ; " found at Walaghit.
