REPTILES AND AMPHIBIANS OP TEXAS 47 



published records for this species probably refer to 

 G. texense Girard, a smaller, slenderer, paler, and 

 more uniformly colored animal with unspotted un- 

 derparts. I have collected typical caroUnense at 

 Cleveland, Liberty county, and have examined speci- 

 mens collected at Paris, by Hurter, and Victoria, by 

 Mitchell. Miss Dickerson reports it from Hitchcock. 

 Mr. Mitchell obtained only one specimen at Victoria, 

 a locality inhabited by both G. texense and G. areo- 

 lata. 



146. Gastrophryne texense Girard. Texas Narrow- 



mouthed Toad. 

 East-Central, Central and Southern Texas. Orig- 

 inally described from Rio Seco by Girard, this spe- 

 cies was not recognized by herpetologists until re- 

 described from Brownsville and San Diego by Miss 

 Dickerson, nearly sixty years later. I have collected 

 specimens at Calvert, Waco, Laguna, Houston, Aus- 

 tin, Texas City and Refugio, and have received it 

 from Victoria from Mr. Mitchell and from San An- 

 tonio from Mr. Garni. 



147. Gastrophryne akeolata Strecker. Mitchell's Nar- 



row-mouthed Toad. 

 Southeastern Texas. Known only from Victoria 

 and Calhoun counties. 



148. Hypopachus cuneus Cope. Taylor's Toad. 



Extreme Southern Texas from San Diego to 

 Brownsville. 



CYSTIGNATHID^ 



149. LiTHODYTES LATRANS Cope. Robber Frog: Barking 



Frog. 

 Central and Southwestern Texas. Recorded only 

 from Helotes and Waco. This and the following spe- 

 cies inhabit rocky places and go into the water only 

 to breed.
