1 specimen, Noonkambah, St. George Range, about 160 miles from the coast; 
a female, 37 mm., with large eggs. 
4 specimens, in springs on St. George Range, about 170 miles from the coast, 
three females, 33—35 mm., with large eggs, and a male, 31 mm. 
GRAY's type specimen was obtained from Port Essington, N. Australia. Be- 
sides, this species is recorded from Queensland, but, as far as I know, not from any 
other country. It seems, however, to be common in the Kimberley Division where 
Dr. MJÖBERG found it near the coast as well as in the interior. 'The specimens 
agree very well with the diagnosis in the Catalogue of Batrachia Salientia; the ground 
colour is grey or brownish olive with rather indistincet dark patches on the back, an 
angular dark spot between the eyes, and a dark band along the canthus rostralis. 
In all specimens the under side of the thighs is more or less marbled with black 
and white. 
Hyla nasuta Gray. — 1 specimen, Yandina, S. E. Queensland, in the rain fo- 
rest not far from Brisbane, !?/« 1911, s 38 mm. EE. Mjöberg. 
GRAY's type specimen was obtained from Port Essington, N. Australia. GÖUN- 
THER (1867) records it from Brisbane, Clarence River, and from Sydney; the last 
mentioned locality is, however, according to FLETCHER probably a mistake, caused by 
the confounding of this species with another. In N. S. Wales FLETCHER has found 
it only in the North, in the border-land to Queensland (1893 p. 525). 
Except for the colour of the back, which is not »einfarbig kastanienbraun» but 
provided with two light dorsolateral bands, diverging behind, and separating a light 
brown dorsal area from the dark chesnut brown sides, this species agrees very well 
with BOoETTGER'S description of Hyla semonmi from the south-eastern part of New 
Guinea (Zool. Forschungsreise in Australien Bd. 5, Lief. 1, p. 112) which species pro- 
bably is identical with H. nasuta.
