Parasphenoid: USNM 404735, from Unit W2, SV-1. Remarks. — Holman (1967) and Wilson (1975) discussed characters of the ilial prominence that allow separation of Bufo woodhousei fowl- eri from the morphologically similar Bufo americanus. Bufo w. fowleri is easily separated from its western counterpart B. w. woodhousei on the basis of the much higher dorsal protuberance in the latter subspecies. Bufo w. fowleri occurs in the area today, and occurs chiefly in sandy areas around shores of lakes, or in river valleys. Family Ranidae Rana pipiens group, sp. indet. Material. — Right ilium: USNM 404736 (Fig. 5), from Unit W3, SV- 2. Two left humeri: USNM 404737, from Unit W3, SV-1; USNM.
