Oomphohatcs. Dr. Stoindachner treats again of the species of this genus, 
correcting some of the errors of his previous accounts (see Zool. Record, i. 
p. 128). He acknowledges the identity of Leiuperm ephippifer ’’ with Gom- 
phohates lirbyeri, but continues to think Evpemphix fuscomaculatus to be dis- 
tinct from Pleurodema hibronii, Novara, Amphib. pp. 11-13. — ^Dr. Hensel de- 
scribes three frogs, which he provisionally refers to the three species of (?om- 
phohaies described by Reinhardt & Liitken, Wiegm. Arch. 1867, pp. 137-139. 
Ltmnodynasles. Dr. Steindachner describes L. tasmaniensisy L. krefftii, and, 
as a new species, L. salmini [which does not appear to be distinct from L, 
href til], 1. c. p. 27, taf. 4. figs. 12-15. — Dr. Keferstein describes Limnodynastes 
ptroniiy Getting. Nachricht. 1867, p. 343, and certainly goes too far in regard- 
ingi. tasmaniensis (from Van Diemen’s Land !), kreffti, and doi'salis as varieties.

Cope, from West Australia, the first in Joum. Ac. Nat. Sc. Philad. v. p. 94,

Crinia georgiana. Dr. Keferstein describes this species, 1. c. p. 347, and re- 
gards Cr. varia (Ptrs.) as a variety [with which we cannot agree]. 
Platyplectrum. Dr. Keferstein describes three species of this genus, 1. c. 
pp, 345, 346, viz. PI. marmoratum (Gtlir.), PI. ornatum [this appears to be 
different from Limnodynastes ornatus, Gray], and PI. superciliare, sp. n., from 
Australia. — Platyplectrum occidentede is described as a new species by Mr. Cope, 
Journ. Ac. Nat. Sc. Philad. v. p. 90, from West Australia.
