There are no reptiles in India in such a confused state as the 

 Banidce, and I can add but little towards disentangling the shadowy 

 species, real enough perhaps, but not as yet characterised, ihe seiies 

 in the Museum is a very poor one, and the Banidcs from a 1 parts oi 

 India must be assiduously collected, before sound results can be 

 obtained. Let us hope that an urgent appeal for frogs trom an 

 quarters of India will be liberally responded to by local naturalist* 

 and collectors, without which aid the subject must long remain in its 

 present unsatisfactory state. Each contributor should not sentt 

 merely the most conspicuous frogs from his neighbourhood, but ail 

 the species and varieties he can procure.
