The Lead is wider than loDg, the width cnteriug the length 2.25 

 times, while the length enters it three times. The entire profile is steeply 

 dccurved, and terminates in a prominent muzzle, which projects con- 

 siderably beyond the upper lip. The nostril is lateral and nearly termi- 

 nal. The lip border is directly below a i)oint half-way between the 

 nostril and the orbit. Tlie maxillary bone is somewhat contracted 

 to the lip border. The prefrontal bones are obtusely angulated above, 

 but the cranial crests commence with the frontoparietal bones. They 

 are j)arallel, rather near together, and are well distinguished every- 

 where. They form a right angle with the postorbitals, beyond which 

 they iire not produced, nor is there any tendency to confluence i^oste- 

 riorly. A short, robust supratympanic ridge. Orbit large j tj^rapanic 

 disk oblique, the long axis directed upwards and forward?, and a little 

 shorter than the eye-flssuro. Skin above with small warts at consider- 

 able distances apart ; below everywhere smooth. Parotoids indistinct 

 iu the specimen, their superior borders strongly divergent from the middle 

 line posteriorly. Limbs rather long. The muzzle marks the middle of 

 the fore-arm, and the distal end of the tarsus of the extended limbs. 

 First finger longer than second; second connected with first and third 

 lingers by a short web. Palmar tubercle longer than usual. Toes 

 closely bound together, the fourth considerably longer than any of the 

 others. The internal cuneiform tubercle has a free edge, which is not 

 black ; the external tubercle is small. The femur is bound to the mid- 

 dle by the skin of the side of the body.
