Vomerine teeth in two oblique series between the choanae. Head 

 moderate, depressed ; snout long, subaouminate ; interorbital space 

 broader than the upper eyelid ; tympanum very distinct, nearly as 

 large as the eye. Fingers slender, first not extending beyond 

 second; toes very slender, fourth about as long as the distance 

 between vent and tympanum, half webbed ; tips of fingers and toes 

 slightly swollen ; subarticular tubercles moderate ; inner metatarsal 

 tubercle very small ; a small outer tubercle. The hind limb being 

 carried forwards along the body, the tibio-tarsal articulation reaches 

 beyond the tip o£ the snout. A narrow glandular lateral fold. 

 Brown above, spotted with darker; glaniular folds and a vertebral 

 line light ; beneath immaculate.

Vomerine teeth in two small groups between the choanse. Head 

 moderate ; snout short, rounded, with rounded canthus rostralis ; 

 interorbital space a little broader than the upper eyelid ; tympanum 

 distinct, half the width of the eye. Pingers moderate, first not 

 extending beyond second ; toes moderate, nearly entirely webbed ; 

 tips of fingers and toes dilated into very small disks ; subarticular 

 tubercles rather small ; a single, small, inner metatarsal tubercle. 

 The hind limb being carried forwards along the body, the tibio- 

 tarsal articulation reaches beyond the tip of the snout. Flat warts- 

 on the sides of the body ; a fold above the tj'mpanum. Olive above, 

 indistinctly spotted ; limbs cross-barred ; beneath immaculate. Male
