with H. midrops (Gtht.), as fiii* as we dan judge frotil the figure illustrating 
the H. heugUni. However, the Adult II. inter ops (male with the vocal sac 
fully developed) is scarcely latgei* than the specimen of H. heugUni which is 
young, and has all the fingers connected by a short web, whilst the three 
inner ones are said to be quite free in H. heugUni.

Hylodes varians, sp. n., Gundlach & Peters, Monatsber. Acad. Wiss. Berl. 
1864, p. 390, from Cuba ; Hylodes giintheri, sp. n., Steindachner, Verb. zool. 
hot. Ges. Wien, 1864, p. 246, taf. 17. fig. 1, from Brazil ; Hylodes truncatus, 
sp. n., Steind. 1 . c. p. 248, taf. 17. fig. 3. From Brazil Hylodes fenestratus, 
Steind. 1. c. p. 249, taf. 16. fig. 1, from Brazil. From an additional note 
(p. 652) it appears probable that this last species is identical with H. griseus 
(Hallow.). 
Hylodes griseus (Hallow.). Steindachner has given a figure of a specimen 
so determined by him. Verb. zool. hot. Ges. Wien, 1864, p. 246, taf. 17. fig. 2. 
It is to be regretted that he has not added the distinctive characters of this 
Species, the W-shaped spot on the nape being present in many specimens of 
H. martinicensis.

Hyta spinosa, sp. n., Steindachner, Verhandl. zool. hot. Ges. Wien, 1864, 
p. 239, taf. 9. fig. 1 ; jperhaps from Brazil. This species reminds us of Opis~ 
thodelpliys by its spines in the supratympanic region, and by its coloration. 
The author does not state the age or sex of his specimen. 
Hyta pulchella (D. & B.) is identical with H. agrestis (Bell) and H.prasina 
(Burmeister). Steindachner, VerhandL zool. hot. Gesellsch. Wien, 1864,

Hyla leucophyllata (Beiris). Dr. Steindachner makes some remarks on the 
coloration and habits of this species. Verb. zool. hot. Gesellsch. Wien, 1864, 
p. 243. 
Hyla hipicnctata (Spix) is identified by Steindachnet (Verb. ?ool. hot. Ges. 
Wien, 1864, p. 262, taf. 11. figs. 2-4) with Lysapsus limellum (Cope). He 
describes it under the false name of Pseudis ininuta (Gthr.) ! and we are 
perfectly at a loss to understand how such a manifest error could take place. 
Phyllomedusa dacnicolor, sp. n.. Cope, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sc. Philad. 1864, 
p. 181, from Mexico. This species has the toes one-third webbed, and the 
parotoids exceedingly weak if present ; therefore it is more probably a Hyla 
than a Phyllomedusa. 
Trachycephalus marmoratus (D. & B.). Dr. Steindachner figures a speci- 
men as it appears after long preservation in spirits. Verb. zool. hot. Ges,
