Vomerine teeth in two oblique series between the choane. Head 
moderate, depressed; snout long, subacuminate ; interorbital space 
broader than the upper eyelid; tympanum very distinct, nearly as 
large as the eye. Fingers slender, first not extending beyond 
second; toes very slender, fourth about as long as the distance 
between vent and tympanum, half webbed; tips of fingers and toes 
slightly swollen ; subarticular tubercles moderate ; inner metatarsal 
tubercle very small; a small outer tubercle. The hind limb being 
carried forwards along the body, the tibio-tarsal articulation reaches 
beyond the tip of the snout. A narrow glandular lateral fold. 
Brown above, spotted with darker; glandular folds and a vertebral 
line light; beneath immaculate.

Vomerine teeth in two small groups between the choane. Head 
moderate ; snout short, rounded, with rounded canthus rostralis ; 
interorbital space a little broader than the upper eyelid; tympanum 
distinct, half the width of the eye. Fingers moderate, first not 
extending beyond second; toes moderate, nearly entirely webbed ; 
tips of fingers and toes dilated into very small disks; subarticular 
tubercles rather small; a single, small, inner metatarsal tubercle. 
The hind limb being carried forwards along the body, the tibio- 
tarsal articulation reaches beyond the tip of the snout. Flat warts 
on the sides of'the body ; a fold above the tympanum. Olive above, 
indistinctly spotted; limbs cross-barred; beneath immaculate. Male
