8. Ntctimantis gkanti, sp. n. (PI. XXVII. figs. 2-2 b.) 



Tongue circular, nicked and slightly free behind. Vomerine teeth in two transverse 

 series between the large choanEe. Head moderate, much broader than long, the skin 

 free from the skull ; snout rounded, shorter than the orbit, with obtuse canthus and 

 very oblique, slightly concave loreal region ; interorbital space as broad as the upper 

 eyelid ; tympanum very indistinct, about one-third the diameter of the eye. Fingers 

 much depressed, outer one-third webbed, disks two-thirds the diameter of the eye. 

 Toes webbed to the disks of the third and fifth and to the penultimate phalanx of the 

 fourth; a very small inner metatarsal tubercle; subarticular tubercles moderate. 

 The tibio-tarsal articulation reaches the tip of the snout. Skin smooth above, 

 granular on the belly and under the thighs ; a strong curved fold above the tympanum. 

 Purplish grey above, vermiculate with black ; flanks and sides of thighs lilac ; lower 

 parts whitish. 



Prom snout to vent 100 mm.

9. Eana grunniens Daud. 



Six specimens from Mimika E. (B. O. U. Exped.). 



These specimens agree well with Dumeril and Bibron's description of the type from 

 Amboyna, and with the single specimen, probably from Java (Lidth de Jeude Coll.), 

 mentioned in the British Museum Catalogue of Batrachians. They difi"er from 

 B. macrodon Kuhl, which van Kampen records from the Lorentz Eiver in Dutch New 

 Guinea, in the shorter fingers and in the absence of the tooth-like processes of the 

 lower jaw, which are more or less developed in adults of that species. 



10. Eana maceoscelis Blgr. 



Ann. & Mag. N. H. (6) i. 1888, p. 345, and Ann. Mus. Genova, (2) sviii. 1898, p. 706; 

 Roux, Abh. Senck. Ges. xxxiii. 1910, p. 226. 



Several specimens from Mimika E. (B. O. U. Exped.). — One young from Camp 

 no. 1, Setekwa E., 500 ft. (Wollaston Exped.). 



I have pointed out, in 1898, that some specimens (males) may be covered above 

 with large flat warts in addition to small granules. I believe van Kampen's 

 R. waigeensis, Bijdr. Dierk. xix. p. 70, and Nova Guinea, ix., Zool. p. 459, pi. xi. 

 fig. 2 (1913), to be founded on immature specimens of this species. The smaller
