Vomeriue teeth in two oblique groups between the choanse. 

 Head moderate ; snout rather short, rounded ; loreal region deeply 

 concave ; in terorbital space as broad as the upper eyelid ; tympanum 

 very distinct, half the size of the eye. Fingers rather slender, first 

 extending slightly beyond second ; toes moderate, entirely webbed ; 

 disks of fingers and toes much developed ; subarticular tubercles 

 well developed ; inner metatarsal tubercle small, oval ; outer 

 tubercle small or none. Hind limb extremely long, the femoro-

 Rana ingiiinahs, G'dnth. Ann, Sf Mag. Nat, Hist, 1877, p. 316. 



Vomerine teeth in two small oblique series extending beyond 

 the hinder edge of the choanse. Head moderate ; snout pointed, 

 with distinct canthus rostralis ; interorbital space a little narrower 

 than the upper eyelid ; tympanum distinct, two thirds the width of 

 the eye. Fingers rather slender, first extending beyond second ; 

 toes moderate, nearly entirely webbed ; tips of fingers and toes 

 slightly dilated ; subarticular tubercles moderate ; a single, very 

 small, inner metatarsal tubercle. The hind limb being carried 

 forwards along the body, the tibio-tarsal articulation reaches a good 

 deal beyond the tip of the snout. Skin smooth above ; a strong 

 fold above the tympanum ; belly slightly granular. Brownish 

 grey above, with subsymmetrical darker spots ; a subtriangular spot 

 between the eyes ; a black band below the canthus rostralis and on 

 the temporal region ; a small black spot on the ingi;inal region ;

Yomerine teeth in two nearly straight transverse groups behind 

 the level of the hinder edge of the choante. Head depressed ; snout 

 blunt, with distinct canthus rostralis and concave loreal region ; 

 interorbital space as broad as the upper eyelid ; tympanum two 

 thirds the width of the eye. Fingers rather slender, first not ex-
