RANA MARTENSI, Sp. n. 
Allied to R. temporaria. Vomerine teeth in two rather oblique 
oval groups, extending posteriurly beyond the line of the choanze. 
Head about as long as broad, very similar to that of R. agilis ; 
nostril equally distant from the eye and the end of the snout; 
iuterorbital space narrower than the upper eyelids; tympanum 
rather large, its diameter equalling about two thirds that of the eye, 
from which it is separated by a space equal to about half its 
diameter. The first finger extends beyond the second. ‘The tibio- 
tarsal articulation reaches the eye or the nostril; tibia shorter than 
the fore limb. Inner metatarsal tubercle rather strong, blunt, oval ; 
outer tubercle absent, or scarcely marked ; subarticular tubercles of 
fingers and toes moderate ; toes two-thirds webbed. Skin smooth ; 
lateral fold rather narrow, moderately prominent. Coloration very 
similar to that of R. agilis, save that the whitish streak bordering 
the temporal spot inferiorly does not extend forwards beyond the 
eye. Male with internal vocal sacs. 
Yedo; several specimens (4410, 4411) in the Berlin Museum, 
one of which was obtained for the British Museum. Collected by 
Dr. E. von Martens (cf. Preuss. Exped. n. Ost-Asien, Zool. i. 
p. 111). 
RANA MACROPUS. 
Ivalus japonicus, Hallow. Proc. Ac. Philad. 1860, p. 501. 
Vomerine teeth in two rather indistinct oblique series between the 
choanze, widely separated in the middle. Snout obtuse, as long as 
the diameter of the orbit; nostril nearer the end of the snout than 
the eye; canthus rostralis well marked, curved; loreal region con- 
cave; eye large ; interorbital space narrower than the upper eyelid ; 
tympanum very distinct, measuring not quite half the diameter of 
the eye. Fingers moderate, slightly depressed, first shorter than 
second; toes moderate, three-fourths webbed; tips of fingers and 
toes dilated into well-developed disks, which are much smaller than 
the tympanum ; subarticular tubercles moderate ; a single, oval, inner 
metatarsal tubercle ; no tarsal fold. When the fore limb is stretched
