Ih'iid small, width three auil one-third times in total length ; loioal re- 

 gion straight; canthus rostralis strong. Sacral diapophyses small, well 

 dilated. Tympaiinm half orbit or a little le.S8. Skin smooth above. Tibia 

 not half the total length. Hind foot longer than arm from elbow, two 

 and one-quarter to two and one-half times width of head behind. In 

 spirits, bluish above, with or without two dark longitudinal stripes; be- 

 neath white. A dark band from the eye along tlie sides, margine<l above 

 .and below by a white line, the lower one reaching only to the arm, be- 

 hind which the outline of the dark band is indistinct. Legs not banded. 



The proportions of this species are much those of H. s<imrvlUt, but 

 stouter; the head short and broad, the body stout, and the limbs short. 

 The skin above appears smooth, as in //. cnroUncmis ; beneath granu- 

 lated. The tongue is large, apparently broader th.an long; shape .slightly 

 emarginate behind ; one-third free. Teeth are in two rather elongated 

 patches, inclined from each other backwards between the internal nares, 

 and terminating about opposite the centers of the latter; then more pos- 

 terior than in 11. caroJincnsis. Tympanum moderate. A single vesicle, 

 supported between the rami of the lower jaw. 



The lingers are provided with distinct pallettes and are very slightly 

 webbed at base; the toes also with well-developed pallettes and webbed 

 to their penultimate articulation (the {intepenultiinate is the longest toe). 

 The tibia is longer than the thigh, but not half the length of the body. 



Above of a nearly uniform clear bluish lead color in alcohol; ho doubt 

 green in life; beneath white or uuicolored. A brown line extends
