List of Species 



Ca-cilia gracilis Shaw. — Six specimens at Dunoon. The 

 specimens were taken in the forest on the bank of the river; 

 one under a board, the others emerged from the ground when 

 the formalin tanks were emptied. 



Pseiidis paradoxa (Linnaeus). — An excellent series of the 

 species, collected in the summer of 1914, was obtained from 

 Mr. James Rodway, Georgetown Museum. The specimens 

 were taken from the ditches about Georgetown. 



Leptodactylus hylccdactylus Cope. — A single specimen taken 

 in low woods at Dunoon, July 29, is referred to this species. 

 It agrees with the descriptions of Cope- and Boulenger^, ex- 

 cept that the writer can distinguish neither a dorso-lateral 

 dermal fold nor a cross-band between the eyes. 



Leptodactylus typhonius (Daudin). — An adult specimen 

 taken at Georgetown by E. B. Williamson, January, 1912, and 

 six specimens from Dunoon. The latter were all taken in the 

 thickets on the mouries. All of the young specimens (25 mm. 

 or less in length) have a narrow, light, dorsal line enlarging 

 into a spot between the shoulders and otherwise differ in col- 

 oration from the adult. The colors in life of one yovmg in- 

 dividual were as follows : Body above brownish olive with 

 dark spots, a narrow capucine orange vertebral stripe enlarged 

 into a spot of the same color between the shoulders, and a 

 flame scarlet stripe on each side ; muzzle above tawny olive ; 

 fore legs above light orange yellow nearly to feet; hind legs 

 dark olive buff; a Sanfords brown patch on the buttocks. An- 

 other specimen was mineral gray above, with orange cinnamon 

 lateral stripes, a cinnamon buff dorsal line, an olive buff spot, 

 and deep olive buff' snout.
