292 On a Stcc/osaurian D inosaur from Lomhanhj. 



Ixalus signatus, Blgr. 



This Southern-Indian species also inhabits Ceylon. A 

 specimen from Punduloya, 5000 feet, has been presented to 

 the British Museum bj Mr. E. E. Green. 



Bufo quadriporcatuSj Blgr. 



This toad was described in 1887 from a specimen obtained 

 near Malacca. It has since been recorded by Giinther from 

 Perak and by me from Deli, Sumatra. I can now add 

 Borneo to its habitat, a fine female specimen having been 

 discovered by Mr. Hose on Mount Dulit. 



XXXV. — On a Stegosaurian Dinosaur from the Trias of 

 Lombardy. By G. A. BouLENGER. 



I HAVE long been puzzled by a cast of a remarkably well- 

 preserved small Dinosaurian foot found among unclassified 

 material in the museum of the Royal College of Surgeons, 

 labelled " Cast of the foot of fossil Reptile from the Lias of 

 Esino, in Lombardy. The original at Milan." The well- 

 known Esino beds of Lombardy do not, however, belong to 

 the Lias, but to the Upper Trias (Keuper). After searching 

 in vain through the bibliography for some notice of the original 

 specimen, I venture to publish this note in order to draw 

 attention to this most interesting Dinosaur, and in the hope 

 that it may result in the rediscovery of the original, whether 

 in the Milan Museum or in some otlier collection. 



I at one time entertained the idea that the foot under con- 

 sideration might be referable to the very obscure Tribelesodon 

 of Bassani *, placed with doubt among the Ornithosauria, 

 but which, as the author remarks, is rather Dinosaurian in its 

 dentition. But my friend Mr. Smith Woodward, who has 

 recently examined the original of the latter in the Milan 

 Museum, informs me tiiat the bones are undoubtedly hollow; 

 and as the Dinosaurian foot from Esino is typically Stego- 

 saurian, it need not be further compared with Tribelesodon. 



As the figure shows, we have to deal with a plantigrade 

 form with hoof- shaped ungual phalanges, which agrees in 

 general characters with Scehdosai(7'us, except tiiai the fifth toe is
