263 CONTRIBUTIONS TO A MORE EXACT KNOWLEDGE OF THE GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF AUSTRALIAN BATRACHIA. No. II. By J. J. Fletcher. In this second small contribution I am able to supply some supplementary details of interest, to record several additional collections from localities in New South Wales west of the Dividing Range — as well as two from Victoria ; and to give some interesting facts kindly communicated to me by two of our members, about the habits of several inland species which town residents rarely get the chance of observing in the natural haunts. Though the number of species (eighteen) previously recorded from the inland division of the colony is not increased, the particulars now given offer additional evidence of wide distribution. (i.) The Coastal Division of N.S. W. (East of the Dividing Range). (a bis). From Dunoon, Richmond River (collected by R. Helms). Hyla phyllochroa, Gthr. Hyla gracilenta, Ptrs. During a second visit to Dunoon, early in this year, Mr. R. Helms obtained and kindly forwarded to me alive one example of the former, and a number of specimens of the latter, both additions to the fauna of the district, and the second of them to New South Wales as well, the species having been previously recorded only from Queensland (N. E. Australia and Port Bowen by Peters ; Rockhampton, in B. M. Catalogue ; specimens obtained for the Macleay Museum by Mr. Froggatt at Cairns were exhibited at a Meeting of this Society in August, 1886). About the same time Mr. A. Sidney OllifF kindly handed over to me two specimens of
