). The tympanum of males is visibly larger than that of females (see also Table 4). Males have slightly longer heads (HL/SVL; Mann-Whitney test U=23, P<0.002). SVL and body proportions are given in Table 4. All the females measured had enlarged, non-pigmented ova.
Coloration (in preservative) is medium to dark brown above. The throat varies from immaculate whitish to heavily marked with irregular brown spots, some of which often appear also on the chest. The diagonal dark bars in front of and behind the tympanum are consistent features of the pattern. The bar behind the tympanum is continued forward above the tympanum to the rear of the eye. The bar at the shoulder mentioned by

The distal edge of the pad is opposite the center of the subarticular tubercle of the first finger. The nuptial pad is usually constricted and in a small percentage of males the constriction divides the pad into two parts.</paragraph>
