. External morphology of the tadpoles remains generally consistent throughout the developmental stages in this series. In all specimens the sinistral spiracle and intestine coils were visible in lateral and ventral views. In early stages 3035, the tail is weakly mottled whereas in later stages (e.g., Gosner 38), the tail is much more densely mottled.

During the daytime, tadpoles were occasionally seen in the water column, but were predictably found buried in the gravel substrate or hiding beneath clumps of leaves at the bottom of the pools in the stream. When disturbed, tadpoles were observed to swim quickly to new hiding places. At nighttime, tadpoles were active in the water column.
