Remarks.—The original description of Bufo simus is based solely on young toads taken by J. von Warszewiez in shallow places in the Chiriqui River near Bo- cas del Toro, Panama. It is assumed that the author refers to rivers or streams descending from the Volcano Chiriqui through the present province of Bocas del Toro and flowing into the lagoon, which is con- nected with the Carib- bean Sea by the so-called Bocas del Toro. It is stated that the cotypes are in the Zoological Museum of Krakow. According to the original description, the body length of the largest individuals (cotypes) is 26 mm. There are no bony crests on the crown and on the hinder part of the head. The tympanum is concealed. The parotoid glands are medium sized and irregularly rounded. There is a slight web on the hind foot, but the toes have dermal fringes. The skin on the back is studded with large and small warts, but the skin of the underparts, with the exception of the thighs, is nearly smooth. The coloration of the upperparts is a lighter or darker gray, and that of the underparts yellow-gray with irregular blackish spots. It has been generally believed that Bujo simus was closely related to Bufo intermedius, and that it differed from the latter only in having the tympanum hi
