Variation. — A specimen was taken on Lubang Island, north 
of Mindoro ; one on Busuanga, Calamianes ; and several in 
northern Palawan. The Lubang specimen is a young female. 
In color markings, both above and below, the specimen is prac- 
tically the same as the type save for the following variations: 
The Lubang specimen has a slightly lighter line following the 
dorsolateral glandular fold which continues on canthus rostra- 
lis; disks on first and second fingers about equal, very much 
smaller (nearly half) than those on third and fourth fingers; 
membranes between fingers more deeply excised, reaching disks 
by a rather narrow margin; the broken white glandular fold 
from mouth to above arm prominent; no traces of bars on legs. 
The Busuanga specimen (31 millimeters) is slightly larger than 
the Lubang specimen; its sides are darker than in the type and 
its back is a little lighter and marbled indistinctly with darker ; 
the fifth toe extends very slightly farther than third; no trace 
of bars on hind or front legs. In one of the Palawan specimens 
the first toe extends very nearly as far as the second ; two spec- 
imens are lavender, with darker markings, and the bars on the 
legs are extremely dim or v/anting. 
Remarks. — Specimens were taken along streams in low moun- 
tains. For the most part they were found perched on leaves 
of vines or plants, or on the bark of trees near the water, in 
which they immediately took refuge. Rana sanguinea was found 
in similar places. 
The species is closely related to Rana sanguinea, and young 
specimens are very much alike in habitus. They are clearly 
differentiated by color and markings, the strongly defined.
