Differs from B. marinus iu the following points : — Habit less 

 stout, the tarso-metatarsal articulation reaching nearly always beyond 

 the eye, frequently to the tip of the snout ; toes rather longer, with 

 shorter web ; tympanum larger, about three fourths the width of 

 the eye ; parotoids much smaller, elongate ; size much smaller. 



From young B. t)/pJionius it may readily be distinguished, as it 

 lacks the angular projection of the angles of the jaws. 



A tarsal fold is generally present ; a lateral line of warts. 

 Brownish above, with symmetrical black spots ; a blackish oblique 

 streak on the temporal region ; flanks and hinder side of thighs fre- 

 quently black, marbled with yellow ; generally a light, sometimes 

 black-edged, vertebral line ; beneath -grey-spotted. Male with a 

 subgular vocal sac.
