Hinde on the Genus Ilindia. 67 VIII.—Description of a neiv Tailed Batrachian from Corea. Bj G. A. BOULENGER. Hynohius Leechiij sp. n. Palatine teeth forming a M -shaped figure, which is broader than long ; the length of one of the series, from anterior to posterior ano-le, ,, ,,,™.,, ^, equals one halt ot the width ot the #^' ' v tongue. Head depressed, a little longer than broad; snout sliort, rounded. Body thrice and two thirds the length of vwii! the head; the distance from snout to gular fold contained nearly thrice in the ^^^^ distance from latter to cloaca. Limbs not meeting when adpressed ; fifth toe well developed. Tail nearly as long as the distance between gular fold and vent, thick, compressed, not keeled, with vertical grooves, obtusely pointed posteriorly. Skin smooth; thirteen costal grooves ; a vertebral groove. Blackish brown, above speckled with pale brownish ; upper surface of tail pale brownish, with a few black dots. milliin.

H. Leech, Esq. The other species are: Rana escuienta^ yqx. japonicaj Bufo vulgaris^ and Hyla arhorea, var. Savignyi. Finding that the name Anaides, given by Baird in 1849 to a genus of Plethodontine newts {cf. Cat. Batr. Caud. p. 52) is preoccupied (Westwood, 1841), I propose to change it to Autodax. IX.— On the Genus Hindia, Duncan, and the Name of its Typical Species. By George Jennings Hinde, , Dr. Bauff's* able paper on this genus, a translation of which by Mr. W. S. Dallas appeared in the September number * " Ueber die Gattung Ilindia, Dune," Sitzungsb. der Niederrh. GeselL zu Bonn, Sitzung vom 10. Mar. 1886. 5*. Please not
