Material examined. Table 1.

A small frog with short body; snout nearly truncate at tip when viewed from above, truncate in profile; nostrils strongly projecting laterally; fingers very short, with lat- eral ridges, pointed disks, and very small basal webbings; skin of upper surfaces smooth with a few short weak glandular lines above shoulders and along sides. The best diagnostic characters to recognize Diasporus gularis are its very short hands and feet with pointed fingers and toes, of which the entire terminal disk is dark gray, and the enormous U-shaped gular pouch of the males ( Cochran and Goin 1970). Diasporus gularis is most readily distinguished from other Diasporus (i.e., D. anthrax and D. tinker ) by its coloration which is orange above with a transverse dark bar between eyes and immaculate ven- ter (dorsum brown with darker blotches and venter dark brown with whitish flecks in D. anthrax ; brown above with a tan interorbital bar, dorsolateral flank stripes and venter white with brown marbling in D. tinker ; Lynch 2001).
