Mr. Auuandale caught three specimens of this small Frog on 

 Bukit Groah, near Biserat in Jalor. It has not, I believe, been 

 reported previously to this from the Peninsula, but is known from 

 Sumatra and Borneo.

This strange creature was very plentiful at Khota Bharu, 

 kelantan, especially in the market-place, where they hide during 

 the day amongst the numerous rubbish-heaps, coming out at night 

 and making an intolerable noise when it rains. They are found 

 down the east coast as far as Triugganu, but in this town are 

 much scarcer than in Kelantan.
