Tongue oval, slightly nicked behind. Vomerine teeth in two 
oblique series behind the choane. Snout subacuminate, prominent, 
with distinct canthus rostralis; nostril much nearer the tip of the 
snout than the eye; the orbital diameter equals the distance between 
the eye and the nostril; interorbital space broader than the upper 
eyelid; tympanum distinct, half the diameter of the eye. Fingers 
moderate, first not extending beyond second; toes moderate, with a 
rudiment of web extending as a slight fringe along the sides of the 
toes ; disks and subarticular tubercles well developed; a small oval 
inner, and a rather indistinct rounded outer metatarsal tubercle. 
The hind limb being carried forwards along the body, the tibio- 
tarsal articulation reaches the tip of the snout or beyond. Skin 
smooth, or with very small scattered tubercles on the back, sides, 
and eyelids; a narrow glandular lateral fold from the eye to the 
sacral region; belly smooth. Brown or olive above; sides of head 
dark brown; a black streak along the canthus rostralis and over the 
temporal region; a dark spot between the eyes; sides with rather 
indistinct oblique dark stripes; limbs cross-barred; hinder side 
of thighs dark brown, spotted with white; throat speckled with 
brown.

From Dr. Steindachner’s description and figures I cannot find a 
single structural character differentiating his 4. giinthert from this 
species, and am therefore inclined to regard both as identical. 
. 9. Hylodes rugosus. 
Hylodes rugosus, Peters, Mon, Berl. Ac. 1878, p. 610. 
Tongue rounded behind. Vomerine teeth in two small groups 
behind the choane. Tympanum half the size of the eye. Disks of 
fingers and toes much smaller than in H. cruentus and rounded. 
Upper surfaces covered with granulations of different size and 
longitudinal glandular ridges, two of which form a )( on the back; 
belly smooth. Black or blackish green above ; between the anterior 
part of the eyes a light cross band; dark bars from the eye to the 
lip; on each side a light longitudinal stripe; limbs cross-barred ; 
hinder side of thighs black, white-spotted ; anterior lower surfaces 
black, white-spotted ; lower belly, lower surface of thighs, soles, and 
the three inner tocs white. Allied to H. conspicillatus. 
Chiriqui.
