 No li^dit spot under the eye, nor any white lino alon^^ the Jaw; merely

 tlio femoral yellow spot.s; the dark postocnhir vitta, tlii^ ab.seiice of

 and iVee behind. The teeth are in two approximated minute circular 

 palclies between the jmsterior nares. The (ympannin is small, scarcely 

 iniMc than half the diameter of the eye. The tibia is not half thelenjith 

 of tiie body. Tiie skin above is sli<>Iitly pustular, althoiijj;h at consid-

 are sli';litly webbeil at the base, tl e fourth longer than second. The 

 last two joints of Uu) toes are free; the web not extending as a margin 

 to the disk of the longest toe, as in II. rcrsicolor.

 dull white. .\ triangular blotch between the eyes, the angle behind 

 tilt! anterior edge extending across between the middle of the edge of 

 the upper eyelids. In II. versicolor this blotch is almost always inter- 

 rupted in the median line. On the anterior half of the back is another 

 iiirge blotch, sending out two branches anteriorly and posteriorly, and 

 one on each side, the anterior pair sometimes running into the blotch 

 on the top of the head. I'.ehindthis are several other blotches of irreg-
