Big-lit specimens were obtained of the new form Leptobm- 
cbitna balmutie and Mr. Boulenger, (3), pp. 453-45-1, gives the 
following description of the one specimen submitted to him : 
Leptobrachium baluense. 
‘‘ Tongue pyriform, entire. Vomerine teeth in two small 
widely separated groups behind the line of the choana:'. Head 
much depressed, nearly twice as broad as long, semicircular in 
outline ; skin adherent to the rugose skull ; snout shorter than 
the diameter of the orbit, not projecting beyond the mouth ; 
canthus rostralis angular ; loreal region vertical, concave ; inter- 
orbital region nearly twice as broad as the upper eyelid ; tympa- 
num feebly distinct, three-lifths the diameter of the eye. Fingers 
rather elongate, slender, first extending a little beyond second. 
Foot much longer than the head ; toes moderately long, slender, 
with a very short web at the base ; no subarticular or metatarsal 
tubercles. The tibio-tarsal articulation reaches the shoulder. 
Skin perfectly smooth ; a very small tubercle near the border of 
the upper eyelid, above the pupil. Back and upper surface of 
snout dark grey ; posterior half of upper surface and sides of 
head blackish brown ; a curved light streak, the concavity turned 
forwards, across the upper eyelids and the interorbital region, 
followed by a Y-shaped blackish marking; two light spots on 
the upper lip, below the eye ; large blackish- brown partly con- 
fluent spots on the back ; sides dark brown, light-edged above ; 
limbs dark brown, with rather indistinct darker cross-bars ; 
throat brown, belly browmish white.”
