Phyllohates melanorhinus (Berthold) described by Dr. Keferstein, Getting, 
Nachricht. 1867, p. 354. 
Phyllohates glandulosus, sp. n., Steindachner, Novar. Amphib. p. 63, tab. 3. 
figs. 1-4, from Brazil. — Phyllohates peruensis, sp. n., Steindachner, 1. c. tab. 4. 
figs. 8-11, from Peru. 
Ilylodes giintheri is redescribed by Steindachner, 1. c. p. 63, tab. 4. figs. 1-7, 
from Rio Janeiro. 
Litoria latopalmata, sp. n., Gunther, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. xx. p. 66, from 
Port Denison. — Litoria mystacina^ sp. n., Keferstein, Getting. Nachricht, 1867, 
p. 366, from Australia. — Litoria copei is described as a new species by Dr, 
Steindachner, Novara, Amphib. p. 66, taf. 8. figs. 14-17, from New South 
Wales [perhaps = Z. wilcoxii]. 
Hyla. Dr. Giirither describes two new species from Cape York, H, infra- 
frenata and II. nigrofrenata, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. xx. p. 66. 
Dr. Steindachner (Novara, Amphib. pp. 67-62) describes several well-known 
species of this genus, Hyla castama as new (p. 62, taf. 3. figs. 9-13), hab. — ? 
He figures Hyla vcnulosa, taf. 3. fig. 18, and states that the typical specimen 
of Hyla spinosa is a female (see Zool. Record, i. p. 131). 
Dr. Hensel describes five species of this genus collected by him in Southern 
Brazil, Wiegm. Arch. 1867, pp. 164-161 : — Hyla mesophcea, sp. n., p. 164 j 
II. maxima,, H. vaiitieri, H. ruhimndula (Rhdt. & Ltk.), and II hracteator^ 
sp. n., p. 169. 
Hyla coriaceay sp. n., Peters, Monatsber. Ak. Wiss. Berl. 1867, p. 711, Su- 
rinam. — Cinclidium granulatum is described as a new species by Cope, Joum. 
Ac. Nat. Sc. Philad. vi. p. 202, Surinam. — Centrotehna cryptomelariy sp. n., 
Cope, 1. c. p. 204, Bahia. 
Hyla prasina. Dr. Giebel states that this species is certainly not identical 
with H. pidchella, but perhaps with H. agrestis. He describes also the ske- 
leton. Zeitschr. ges. Ntrwiss. xxix. pp. 28-32. \^H. agrestis is quite distinct 
from H.prasina.~\ 
Hyla holochroa (Salvin) proves to be identical with H. morelettii (Dum.), 
Keferstein, Getting. Nachricht. 1867, p. 366. 
Pohlia, g. n., Steindachner, Novara, Amphib. p. 16, is said to be distin- 
guished from Pana in having the first finger opposite to the others j from 
Pseudis in having the tongue deeply notched, and the vomerine teeth in two 
widely separate groups. Pohlia palmipesy sp. n., Steindachner, 1. c. taf. 1. 
figs, 6-8, from Matogrosso. — According to Mr. Cope, Pohlia is probably Pa- 
nula (Ptrs.), as defined by himself, Joum. Ac. Nat. Sc. Philad. vi. p. 201. 
[Having recently received an example of this Pohlia palmipes from Pebas, I 
find that the genus is Hyloid, the dilatations of the hind toes being small, but 
very distinct. The apophysis of the sacral vertebra is dilated. The first 
finger is not opposed to the others.] 
OlolygoHy g. n., Steindachner, 1. c. p. 64, distinguished from Hyla by the 
absence of a web between the toes ; disks inconspicuous ; male without gular 
sac. Ololygon ahhrematusy sp. n., Steindachner, 1. c. p. 66, taf. 4. figs. 16-19, 
from Brazil. — The same frog is described by Dr. Hensel in Wiegm. Arch. 1867, 
p. 161, who, not paying regard to the form of the transverse process of the sa- 
cral vertebra, refers it to Ilylodes. — Mr. Cope remarks that the frog described 
by Dr. St. is not Hyla ahhreviata (Spix), which is a Cystignathoid of the genus
