Eyes medium sized (ED/SUL 0.115-0.141), eye-naris distance about same as internarial distance (END/IND 0.86-1.25). A brown hour-glass mark present on dorsum, with anterior part of mark much smaller than posterior part. Dorsal surfaces covered with scattered tubercles in life but these become inconspicuous or are absent in preservative. Lower surfaces smooth with a mixture of small brown dots and larger brown spots on a yellow-grey background, throat more strongly pigmented than remaining ventral surfaces. Advertisement calls consist generally of two short but clearly pulsed notes produced in long series, a call structure that is unique for short-snouted species in the genus

Head broader than long (HL/HW 0.82); tip of snout truncate with a small median protuberance in dorsal view and truncate in lateral view; nostrils near tip of snout, directed laterally and not visible from above, distance between nares greater than distance between eye and naris (END/IND 0.92); canthus rostralis in dorsal view rounded and slightly bent; loreal region nearly vertical; tongue strongly widened posteriorly with distinct indentation, posterior half and sides free; prepharyngeal ridge without denticles, fairly long vocal slits on both sides of mouth floor; tympanum half size of eye, its upper margin covered by tympanic fold. Shanks short (TL/SUL 0.40). Fingers unwebbed and with broad and grooved terminal discs, their relative lengths 3>4>2>1 (Fig. 11a, b); disc of third finger twice as wide as penultimate phalanx, no prominent metacarpal or subarticular tubercles. All toes with wide and grooved terminal

In preservative ground colour of dorsal surfaces of head, body and extremities light-grey or light brown; some dark brown flecks on head, in the scapular region and on extremities, one dark brown fleck bordered anteriorly by a yellowish fleck in the lumbar region, discs of fingers and toes yellowish and markedly less pigmented than most other dorsal surfaces. Conspicuous is an off-white interocular stripe continuing on eye lids and extending dorsolaterally to the lumbar fleck. This off-white stripe broadening irregularly in the scapular region and in combination with the dark brown mid-dorsum giving the impression of an hour-glass mark with anterior part clearly shorter than its posterior one. A distinct short whitish stripe between eye and angle of jaws. Ground colour of ventral surfaces yellowish. Extremities, throat and anterior chest fairly uniform dark brown, the paler abdomen mottled with some small brown spots.

0.94 mm) and one subadult (?) female (SAMA R70332) with very small eggs in its ovaries measured 15.2 mm. All specimens exhibit a lighter or darker brown mid-dorsal patch that shows a clear constriction in the scapular region. There is a tendency for the anterior part of this patch to be more strongly pigmented than the posterior one. This patch is bordered dorsolaterally by an irregularly shaped light grey stripe in all specimens. A light interocular stripe is present in all but one specimen. A large, pale semi-circular patch in the coccygeal region is present in a few specimens. Throat brown with small whitish spots in most specimens; abdomen in most specimens light grey or yellowish with brown spots, and inferior surfaces of legs brown with whitish spots. Nine of the types have a whitish longitudinal hairline in middle of abdomen; in some specimens this line continues on the throat or forms a cross in the pectoral region.

Colour images taken in life are available for three individuals from the type series, but we are unable to assign them to specific vouchered specimens. Two of these individuals are shown in Figs 12 and 13. In the first specimen the snout, dorsolateral stripe, lumbar spots, distal tarsi and heel region are light grey; anterior part of dorsal hourglass mark is blackish, its posterior (much larger) part more brownish; all dorsal surfaces with a few reddish sections even on basal parts of finger and toe discs; stripe between eye and angle of jaws striking white; iris silvery with blackish venation, its inner margin an orange oval; all dorsal surfaces and throat with small white dots (Fig. 12). The second specimen has grey lateral surfaces, the anterior part of the hourglass mark on dorsum is blackish, its posterior part a mixture of dark brown and

spots; reddish spots also occur around the elbows and heels, in the inter-ocular and the dorsolateral stripe; throat, lateral sides of head and lower flanks grey with dark grey and white dots (Fig. 13). The third specimen is coloured much as is illustrated in Fig. 13 with most of its dorsal surfaces dark brown or blackish, but conspicuous is a dark red diagonal stripe above insertion of forearm and a large dark red fleck on the coccygeal region.

is currently known only from two locations at elevations between 2,200 and 2,400 m asl in the mountains of the Huon Peninsula, Morobe Province, north-eastern Papua New Guinea (Fig. 14). Males called from semi-concealed or exposed positions on low foliage, normally between 1-2.5 m above the forest floor at night. At Teptep males were calling from leaves in remnant and severely disturbed forest patches, while at Dendawang the species was common in undisturbed, wet mossy forest.

normally consists of two notes that are uttered in long series lasting up to several minutes (Fig. 15). A few calls were recorded that consist of only one note, and these were normally (but not always) early in a sequence. Those calls were not considered further. Two-note calls recorded at air temperatures of 14.8 °C to 16.4 °C were analysed from SAMA R70327 (n=50), SAMA R70329 (n=13) and SAMA R70329 (n=32). Because characteristics of all two-note calls are similar, they were combined for analysis here. Mean call duration was 0.39
