This frof;-, of which a female si)ecimeu was obtained, combines charac- 

 teristics of different jjroups; its coloration resembles somewhat that <>t 

 the eastern or tyjucal form of h'aiia rirescciis, but the full palmation of 

 the hind foot is that of 7>'. moiitezunuv and Ji. catisbiana. It is also <piile 

 similar to the 7i*. draytoni, which is the R. longipen of Ilallowell. The 

 feet are shorter, the hind feet beiiif,' twice as long as tlie head to tiie 

 posterior border of the tympanum, while in 1\. d. (hai/ioni it is two and
