Mr. Fletcher exhibited two frogs, duplicates of specimens recently 
submitted to Mr. Boulenger of the Bi-itish Museum, who regards, 
and will shortly desci’ibe, them as representing two new species, 
namely, a Limnodynastes from the Mudgee district, collected by 
Mr. A. G. Hamilton, and a Crinia from Warragul, Gippsland, 
V ictoria, collected by Mr. R. T. Baker. Also the remarkable frog 
exhibited at a previous meeting (vide Proceedings, Mai’ch, 1887) 
which from the cursory examination then possible, nobody present 
recognised, and which he again showed to point out that it 
appeared to be a very large old male specimen of Belioporus 
alhopunctatus, Gray, in which the shagreening of the skin was 
more than usually developed. 
Mr. North exhibited the eggs of the following species : — 
Menura superha, Davies ; M. alberti, Gould ; and 21. victorice, 
Gould ; also the eggs of six species of Bower-birds, viz.: — 
Ptilonorhynchus violaceus, Vieillot ; Chlamydodera macidata, 
Gould ; C. cerviniventris, Gould ; Sericidus uielinus, Latham ; 
Ailunudus viridis, Latham, and A. macidosus, Ramsay. 
Mr. J. Douglas Ogilby exhibited three specimens of the larval 
form of the genus Trachypterus, two of which were obtained 
from the Mediterranean, and are labelled T. Unnia by Dr. Dohrn ; 
the third was taken in Port Jackson by Mr, W. Paul, and is 
probably the young stage of Dr. Ramsay’s 1\ jacksoniensis, a 
species which is so closely allied to the northeni T. arcticus that 
there is great doubt as to their specific distinction. The great 
development of some of the fins is w orthy of notice, especially 
as in the adult state they are either very much modified or (in 
the case of the ventrals) entirely absent.
