As a matter of fact, true teeth are never found on the palatine bones of any Salientia. The genera of Rhombophryninae are best distinguished by comparing their skull and pectoral girdle elements. Mantipus, Platyhyla, Platypelis, and Plethodontohyla retain the maxillary teeth, and their posterior prevomer is a broad transverse plate overlying the palatines. In Plethodontohyla the clavicles are
