16 L. G. ANDERSSON, DR. E. MJÖBERGS EXPEDITIONS TO AUSTRALIA 1910—1913. 9. BATRACHIANS. 
Hyla nannotis n. sp. 
(Figs. 5 a—e.) 
Tongue semicircular, slightly nicked behind. Vomerine teeth in two transverse 
groups on a level with the hind edges of the choan&. Snout short, rounded, slightly 
prominent, a little shorter than the orbit; nostril near the end of the snout; can- 
thus rostralis rounded, loreal region oblique and concave. Interorbital space some- 
what broader than the upper eyelid. Tympanum very small, about the fourth the 
diameter of the orbit, its upper margin not distinct. Fingers rather long and slender, 
webbed at the base, a distinct rudiment of pollex; toes nearly entirely webbed; disks 
of fingers larger than disks of toes, which are a little larger than the tympanum. 
A tarsal fold; no outer metatarsal tubercle, inner very distinct, long and oval. Tf 
the length of the tibia is marked off from the knee forwards along the body, it 
reaches beyond the snout. Skin very finely granulate or prickled above, and pro- 
vided with small, sparsely scattered tubercles on the head and back. Coarsely granular 
below and on the sides of the body; a distinct fold above the tympanum. Dark 
olive grey or brownish above, closely and irregularly speckled with blackish; the 
lower surfaces of the limbs and of the hind part of the belly reddish brown, remaining 
lower parts brownish grey, the chin spotted with black. 
A male specimen from Tully River, N. Queensland, April 1913.

» of snout 6,2 mm. 
Diameter of eye 6,8 >» 
> of tympanum 1,6 mm. 
Length of humerus 9,5 mm.

» of tarsus and 4th toe 32,5 mm. 
By the very small tympanum this species seems to be allied to Hyla arfakiana 
PETERS & DoRriaA and possibly to Hyla parvidens PETERS. But according to the 
descriptions, the former has »snout acuminate, longer than the diameter of the orbit; 
canthus rostralis straight, loreal region not very oblique, fingers free, no distinct 
rudiment of pollex; toes two thirds webbed, skin smooth above etc.» The colour 
is rather dissimilar as well, and to judge from the figure in Ann. mus. Civ. Genova
