In these specimens, its apparent absence is likely a preservation artifact, as it is sometimes obvious on one leg of a specimen but not on the other. Hand webbing reaches to middle of or to beyond penultimate tubercle of F4 and to beyond penultimate tubercle of F2. Series of tubercles along the metacarpals are evident in some specimens but not all, the variation seeming to be a preservation artifact. The third and fifth toes are generally subequal in length, but some specimens have one clearly slightly longer than the other.

Males are typically light gray, medium brown, or gray brown and freckled or mottled with darker brown. One is dark brown with a few orange-brown spots; one has a few beige spots; another is orange tan mottled with medium brown. In contrast, females are generally orange brown in color and vaguely mottled with darker brown. One is uniformly gray brown, looking similar to the males; another is dark brown with a dark-orange cast on the sides. Darker mottling can vary from sparse (

D) to prominent; one female has a few small enamel-cream markings. Venters are cream and usually stippled with dark brown. This stippling is typical for the males and is generally concentrated anteriorly or on the sides; females are usually sparsely stippled, with a little along the jaw margin or on the throat. The two darker females are more generally stippled ventrally. The pattern on the rear of the thighs varies considerably. Some specimens are uniformly dark brown, but most of them have some form of “tiger-striped” pattern consisting of a blue-gray or dark salmon or orange-brown ground with caramel-brown bars and maculations, or the reverse, depending on which color field predominates in areal size. All adults have darkbrown irises, but one newly metamorphosed frog (BPBM 15208) has a pale-tan iris, which is clearly observable in preservative.

From field notes for BPBM 15201 (male): Dorsum tan with obscure brown reticulum; ground color and barring on legs more or less same colors as dorsum; venter white with heavy maroon suffusion on chin, throat, chest, sides, and undersides of legs; palpebral reticulum gold on a black background; iris brown. BPBM 15204 (female) was tan with lavender bars on the back of the thighs, and BPBM 15213 (female) had an orangebrown dorsum with darker orange-brown reticulum across the center, yellow-orange in the groin and on the hidden surfaces of the thighs, and a purple-brown palpebral reticulum. Color images illustrate additional variants that are tan with numerous light purple-gray flecks (male,

). For BPBM 15202, the dominant frequency of the first note was usually lower than that for the second note, being of higher pitch in only three of 49 calls. In BPBM 15303 the situation was reversed, with 10 of 14 first notes being of higher pitch than the second note. Notes begin abruptly and increase and decrease in amplitude rather gradually; however, the end of each note tends to decrease more gradually, producing a teardrop-shaped wave function (
