and that there was a long interval between the compound iliac bar 



and the transverse process of the 6th vertebra.

41087. A split slab of lignite showing the impression of the skeleton 

 and the contour of the soft parts of a small frog pro- 

 visionally referred to this species ; from the Lower Mio- 

 cene of Bott, near Bonn, Siebengebirge. This specimen 

 is slightly smaller than the type specimen figured by 

 Wolterstorff in the ' Jahrb. Yer. nat. Magdeburg ' for 

 1886, pi. viii. fig. 4 ; and the sacrum appears to be of the 

 same character as in the larger skeleton represented in 

 fig. 1 of the same plate, and provisionally referred to this 

 species. The sacrum is altogether different from that of the 

 small frog represented in fig. 2 of the same plate as P. di- 

 luvianus, var. elegans. All the above specimens are from 

 Rott. Purchased, 1868. 



False ob at rachms bohemicus, Meyer \ 

 Larger than P. diluvianus, and apparently allied to the Prussian 

 P. grandipes, Giebel 2 . Only the transverse process of the 8th ver- 

 tebra joining the sacral process ; the former process being compara- 

 tively small. The vertebral column is stated to be shorter than in 

 P. grandipes.

35808. Slab of lignite showing the impression and some of the bones 

 of an imperfect skeleton apparently belonging to this 

 species ; from the Lower Miocene of Markersdorf, Bohemia. 

 This specimen accords in size with the imperfect skeleton 

 from the same locality figured by Wolterstorff in the 'Jahrb. 

 nat. Ver. Magdeburg,' for 1886, pi. ix. fig. 1, and also with 

 that of P. grandipes represented in fig. 2 of the same plate. 



Purchased, 1859. 



Palseobatrachus luedeckei, "Wolterstorff 3 . 



Smaller and slighter than P. diluvianus, with very slender limbs ; 

 the transverse process of the 7th vertebra remaining entirely dis- 

 tinct from the sacral process ; vacuity between 8th transverse process 

 and sacral process much smaller than the one between 7th and 8th 

 transverse processes, which remains open.
