The Tailless Batrachians of Europe

Abstract

THE publication of this elegant treatise marks an event in the history of the Ray Society upon which its members, so long content with a diet of insects, are to be heartily congratulated. Of the 210 pages of the work, 121 are devoted to an “Introduction” in which the classification, taxonomic characters, skeleton, viscera, habits, and reproduction of the Batrachia Ecaudata are successively dealt with on broad lines, special sections being added on hybrids and geographical distribution.

The Tailless Batrachians of Europe.

Part i. By G. A. Boulenger Pp. 210. (London: The Ray Society, 1897.)
