Total length (head and body), 52 mm. ; length of head, 16 

 mm. ; width of head, 16 mm. ; fore leg from axilla to tip of 

 longest finger, 33 mm. ; hind leg to tip of fourth toe, 65 mm. ; 

 hind leg to heel, 35 mm. 



Notes on Paratypcs : The five adult and five partly grown 

 specimens examined show little variation from the type, the 

 only appreciable dift"erence being in the position of the spiny 

 warts. These may form only a small patch between the eye 

 and arm, or may extend along the side from eye to femur ; and 

 a single young specimen is entirely covered above with spiny 

 warts, beneath with flat tubercles. The coloration is constant 

 in the series. 



Habits: The specimens were taken on the banks of small 

 streams — the headwaters of the River Macostama. 



Remarks: As previously stated, A. carrikeri is apparently 

 near A. ignescens, but it may be readily distinguished from 

 the latter by the characteristic coloration, the proportion of the 

 head to the trunk, the narrow interocular space, and the pro- 

 portionate length of the hind limb.
