Head moderately wide (HW/SV = 0.43), with steeply oblique loreal region and inflated upper lip; canthus rostralis rounded, straight when viewed from above; nostrils directed laterally, closer to tip of snout than to eyes; internarial distance narrower than distance from naris to eye (EN/IN = 1.08, IN/SV = 0.083, EN/SV = 0.089); snout slightly rounded when viewed from the side, rounded when viewed from above; eyes large (EY/SV = 0.15); eyelid approximately same width as interorbital distance; tympanum hidden. Dorsal, lateral, and ventral surfaces smooth; supratympanic fold absent. Fingers unwebbed, all bearing well-developed discs; relative lengths 3&gt;4&gt;2&gt;1. Discs of F3 and F4 with poorly developed circum-marginal grooves, approximately 2 times widths of penultimate phalanges (3rdF/SV = 0.046); discs of F1 and F2 lacking such grooves, that of F2 approximately 1.5 times width of penultimate phalanx, that of F1 barely wider than penultimate phalanx. Subarticular tubercles poorly developed, metacarpal tubercles not evident. Toes unwebbed, bearing discs, with terminal grooves on T2T5; relative lengths 4&gt;3&gt;5&gt;2&gt;1. Toe discs smaller than those of fingers (3rdF/4thT = 1.30); disc of fourth toe approximately 1.5 times as wide as penultimate phalanx (4thT/SV = 0.036); disc of first toe approximately same width as penultimate phalanx. Subarticular and metatarsal tubercles not obvious.
