     summary: Judging from our observations, _amurensis_ prefers the proximity of water, whereas _temporaria_ may occur some distance from permanent water. At Chip´o-ri on April 6, individuals (probably _R. t. dybowskii_) were seen in a seepage pool from an abandoned rice field; _R. nigromaculata_ also was seen there.

     summary: The breeding calls of _Hyla rufioculis_ and _H. uranochroa_ consist of high melodious notes; the calls of _H. legleri_ and _H. salvadorensis_ consist of series of short notes that have the general characteristics of the call of _Ptychohyla schmidtorum_. Ptychohyla schmidtorum chamulae_ inhabits cloud forest on the Atlantic slopes of the Chiapan Highlands, whereas _P. s. schmidtorum_ lives in cloud forest on the Pacific slopes of the Sierra Madre in Chiapas and Guatemala.

     summary: A recent paper by Hecht (1957) discusses many features of _Necturus_ and _Proteus_, and shows that they are remote from each other; his evidence does not seem to prove, however, that they were of independent origin or that they need be placed in separate families. VERTEBRAE AND RIBS Development of the vertebrae and ribs of Recent Amphibia has been studied by Gamble (1922), Naef (1929), Mookerjee (1930 a, b), Gray (1930) and Emelianov (1936), among others.

     summary: the nasals are separated throughout their lengths from the ethmoid, whereas the nasals of _S. phaeota_ are separated from the ethmoid by cartilage. In the _baudini_ group, _S. phaeota_ and _cyanosticta_ are allopatric, whereas _S. baudini_ occurs sympatrically with both of those species.
