The dorsum bears a dark chocolate brown hour glass-shaped mark, which in some individuals is broken into a large mark posteriorly and a smaller triangular one on the head and nape. The dorsal ground color varies from pale cream or ivory to yellow or tan. The intensity of the dorsal pigmentation is subject to rather rapid change. The flanks, hands, and anterior part of the venter are lemon yellow; the feet, thighs, and posterior part of the venter are golden yellow. The dorsal surface of the shank is yellow to tan with chocolate brown bars or spots; the heel is pale yellow. There is a dark brown bar in the loreal region and a dark brown bar extending posteriorly from the eye to a point above the insertion of the forelimb. The iris is a copper color. The toes are completely webbed; the fingers, one-third webbed. There is a small axillary web that is evident when the forelimbs are at right angles to the body. Twenty males have an average snout-vent length of 28.1 mm.; three females, 35.3 mm. There are no nuptial tuberosities on the pollex of breeding males. This species has been collected at Coyame and Catemaco in Los Tuxtlas and at various localities in Tabasco; it apparently ranges eastward from southern Veracruz, Mexico, in humid forests to El Peten, Guatemala. =Hyla loquax= Gaige and Stuart _Oaxaca_: Donaji (7); 43 km. N of Matias Romero (21). _Veracruz_: 19 km. N of Acayucan (4); Aquilera (3); 8 km. SW of Coatzacoalcos (36); Cuototolapam (11); Naranja (13); San Lorenzo (8). In the isthmus this species is known only from the humid forests of the Gulf lowlands; it is also known from Boca del Rio, Veracruz, and from Teapa and Villa Hermosa, Tabasco. Calling males were found on aquatic plants above the water in deep ponds in the forest where it was necessary for the collector to wade waist-deep in water to obtain them. The call is a loud "hah-onk." Individuals, when active at night, are yellowish tan above with light olive green spots. The flanks, belly, and vocal sac are yellow, and the anterior and posterior surfaces of the thighs and webbing of the feet are bright orange-red or tomato red. Individuals found during the day are grayish brown with olive markings or reddish brown with black markings. Sleeping individuals are ivory-gray with faint gray markings. The iris is a bright copper color. Fifteen adult males have an average snout-vent length of 41.7 mm.; they have no horny nuptial pads on the pollex.
