The following description is based on _Smilisca baudini_ (Fig. 10). M. submentalis lies in the anterior angle of the lower jaw, is thick, and consists of transverse fibers extending between the dentaries. M. submaxillaris is thin and arises from the whole of the inner surface of the lower jaw, except for the anterior angle occupied by M. submentalis. Anteriorly M. submaxillaris is broadly attached by fascia to M. hyoglossus and M. geniohyoideus, which lie dorsal to M. submaxillaris. Medially this attachment continues posteriorly for about one-half the length of the hyoglossus. Posteriorly M. submaxillaris is folded and attached to M. sternoradialis of the pectoral girdle. The vocal sacs are formed by a pair of posterolateral evaginations of M. submaxillaris; a broad connection between the pouches allows free passage of air between the pouches. The deeper throat musculature is essentially the same as that described for _Phrynohyas spilomma_ by Duellman (1956), except for slight differences in the place of attachment on the hyoid. Skin _Structure_ The skin of _Smilisca_ is typical of that of most hylids in organization and structure. _Smilisca sila_ is distinguished from other members of the genus by the presence of small wartlike protrusions and peculiar white, pustular spots on the dorsum. The wartlike structures are composed of three or four epidermal cells, which protrude from the surface of the epidermis; the structures are covered by a slightly thickened layer of keratin. The white pustules are slightly elevated above the surrounding skin. Internally they consist of aggregations of swollen, granular, pigment-cells (perhaps lipophores) lying between the epidermis and the melanophores. _Biochemical Variations_
