5. Eana miceodisca, Bttgr. 



Eana microclisca, Boettg. Ber. OfEenb. Ver, Nat. 1892, p. 137, 

 and in Semon, Zool. Forsch. pi. v. fig. 2 (1894). 



Deseribad from the mountains of Java, this small Frog was 

 soon after recorded from Mentawi, south of Sumatra (Boulenger, 

 Ann. Mus. G-enova, 2, xiv. 1894, p. 616), and Celebes (Miiller). 

 The first Celebes si)ecimen was obtained in the Boue Mts. by the 

 Drs. Sarasin, and was compared witli the type by Prof. Boettger. 

 A second specimen is from Tomohon. 



R. microclisca is closely allied to the two preceding and the 

 following species, but is well distinguished by its extremely long 

 hind limbs, the tibio-tarsal articulation reaching far beyond the 

 tip of the snout, and the tibia measuring two-thirds the length of 

 head and body. The toes are incompletely webbed, the last three 

 phalanges of the fourth being nearly entirely free ; the extremity 

 of the fifth toe extends a little beyond the second subarticular 

 tubercle of the fourth toe. No dermal fringe along the outer 

 border of the fifth toe. First fiuger extending considerably 

 beyond second. Upper parts with small smooth warts ; no 

 dorso-lateral fold. Olive above, with or without a pair of light 

 dorsal stripes ; a dark cross-bar between the eyes ; upper lip with 

 dark vertical bars ; limbs with regular dark cross-bars ; yellowish 

 beneath, throat marbled with brown ; lower lip dark brown, with 

 regular white interruptions.

Bana palavanensis, Bouleng. Ann. & Mag. N. H. (6) xiv. 1894, 

 p. 85. 



Vomerine teeth in two short oblique series commencing on a 

 line with the hinder edge of the choauje. Head moderate, as long 

 as broad ; snout short, rounded, as long as the diameter of the 

 orbit ; canthus I'ostralis angular ; loreal region slightly concave ; 

 nostril equidistant from the orbit and the end of the snout ; inter- 

 orbital space as broad as or a little narrower than the upper 

 evelid ; tympanum distinct, three-fifths the diameter of the eye. 

 Fingers moderate, the tips swollen or dilated into very small 

 disks : first finger extending slightly beyond second ; toes moderate, 

 two-thirds webbed, the tips dilated into small but very distinct 

 disks ; subarticular tubercles moderate ; inner metatarsal tubercle 

 elliptical, flat, measuring two-fifths or one-half the length of the 

 inner toe ; no outer metatarsal tubercle ; no tarsal fold. Tibio- 

 tarsal articulation reaching the tip of the snout or beyond ; tibia 

 as long as or a little shorter than the fore limb. Skin nearly 

 smooth ; posterior lialf of upper eyelids warty ; a fold from the 

 eye to the shoulder ; a uaiTow glandular dorso-lateral fold, 

 beginning behind the upper eyelid, above the supratemporal fold.
