of the choanae. Head as broad as long; snout flat, rather prominent, 
once and one-third the diameter of the eye; canthus rostralis indistinct; 
sides of snout slightly concave; eye large, prominent; tympanum distinct, 
about half the diameter of the eye. Fingers absolutely unwebbed, toes 
fully webbed; dises of fingers very well developed, broader than long; 
dises of toes round and smaller than those of fingers; subarticular tu- 
bercles inconspicuous; no tarsal fold. A very slight rudiment of a pollux. 
The hind limb being carried along the body, the tibio-tarsal articulation 
reaches between the eye and nostril. Upper surfaces smooth, lower sur- 
faces finely granulate. In life, green above, with a gray, almost colorless, 
spot between the shoulders; yellowish below; hinder side of thighs with a 
brilliant marbling of black and yellow, this marking extends to the pos-

brown, the yellow to dirty white.
