Judging from the large series of specimens secured by 

 the Academy's collectors, toads of this species must be 

 very numerous in the' " Cape Region " of Lower Cali- 

 fornia. Several which were collected in September con- 

 tain eggs nearly ready for deposit. 



Mr. Xantus found this toad at Cape San Lucas, and 

 Mr. Belding at La Paz.
