 Phyllodactylus reissii, Peters, Mon. Perl. Ac. 1862, p. 626. 



Agrees in almost every point with P. tubercuhsus. The differences 

 are that the scales on the hinder part of the head are uniform 

 minute granules, and that the mental is almost entirely between 

 the front pair of infralabials, which are hardly smaller than that 

 plate.
