Two .specimens of this form are l)efore me antl yiokl the following 

 characters: Tiieir peculiar eoloratioii li'wvs tiieni an eiegaut a|)pearaii<',u, 

 and one quite different from tliat presented by any other North Ameri- 

 can Itana. 



Lenfjtli of liead one-tliird of total. Ileel of extended hind leg reach- 

 in};- to the front of the orbit ; muzzle rather elonj>ate, but little produced 

 beyond the edye of the lip, the extremity slopiii}-' obliijuely upwards and 

 posteriorly, so as to shorten the .sujjerior plane. The nostril has an 

 elevated i)osition and a suprolateral presentation; it is a little nearer 

 the orbit than the end of the muzzle. The membranum tynipani is a 

 vertical oval, with the short diameter only half the length of the eye 

 fissure. The heel of the extended hind leg reaches to the anterior border 

 of the orbit. The i)osterior edges of the vomerine patches are behind the 

 borders of the choanie.
