Summary

[edit]
Description

268 ranidj:.
Hind limb very variable in length

the tibio-tarsal
articulation reaches between the shoulder and the tip
of the snout

tibia as long as or shorter than the fore
limb, as long as, longer, or shorter than the thigh.
Foot as long as or longer than the tibia

toes entirely
or almost entirely webbed, with small subarticular
tubercles

inner metatarsal tubercle varying in shape
and size according to the varieties, oval and feebly pro-
minent or compressed and crescentic

a small rounded
tubercle usually present at the base of the fourth toe.
Skin smooth or verrucose, usually with small granu-
lar asperities on the sides and hind limbs

a prominent
glandular dorso-lateral fold; these folds parallel or
slightly diverging towards the sacrum, the distance
between them on the scapular region one-sixth to one-
fourth the length from snout to vent

a short glan-
dular fold behind the angle of the mouth

more or less
distinct glandular ridges may run along the upper
surface of the tibia

lower parts smooth, more or less
distinctly granulate or areolate on the hinder part of
the belly and under the thighs.
Upper parts brown, green, olive, or blue, uniform
or spotted with dark olive or black, often with a light
yellow, green, or blue vertebral stripe

glandular lateral
folds usually golden or bronzy

hind limbs with or
without dark cross-bars

hinder side of thighs usually
with dark marblings

a dark temporal spot sometimes
present

lower parts white, uniform or spotted or
marbled with blackish. Iris golden, or black and
golden.
Males distinguished by stronger fore limbs, a pad-like
swelling at the base of the inner finger, covered during
the breeding season with grey horny granules, and
an external vocal sac on each side of the head

this
sac issues from a slit in the skin behind the angle of
the jaws, the length of which about equals the dia-
meter of the orbit. A more or less distinct fold in the
position of the vocal sac is usually visible in the
females, and in a large female from Pisa I even

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
