The pouch is continuous with the dermis and extends forward into the lymph sac beneath the lateral and ventral surfaces. The right and left pouches are independent and do not join. There is no evidence of a nuptial pad on the dorsal surface of the fingers or prepollex in any of the male specimens that were collected while calling and reproductively active.

). At times the male will move to the clutch and move over it. We can only speculate on the cues that the males rely on to indicate the time of embryo hatching. However, the embryos do wriggle vigorously at times and this may provide some cue for the male. At hatching the male moves over the clutch, and the jelly liquifies. The embryos wriggle vigorously, with the head arched downward. The male rotates slowly within the clutch, and the legs are held slightly away from the body so that a crevice is created between his flanks and legs. The flanks are slightly concave. Newly hatched tadpoles wriggle up the crevice to the opening of the pouch in the inguinal region (

). Apart from rotating in the liquified clutch the male does not assist tadpoles into the pouch. Our observations are that most carrying males (n=12) have approximately equal number of tadpoles in the left and right pouch. Males have a rounded and robust body habitus when carrying tadpoles, and the pouch opening is no more distinct than in non-carrying males. Metamorphosis occurs in the pouches and the young emerge, usually hind limbs first (

. However, we observed two aspects of reproductive behaviour not described previously. First, we found several cases in which a male carried two cohorts of tadpoles, and the difference in development stage was such that it can only be that the male had incorporated two clutches that were fertilised well separated in time. In these cases, the brooding male was actively calling when collected. Second, when a female approached a male to enter into amplexus we did not see any evidence that the female inspected the male prior to embrace as described by
