Red-bellied Newt Diemyctj)lus pyrrhagister PhotograpKed b^ the AutKor During the latter part of March of this year (1916) Mr. Edward S. Schmid, the well-known pet fancier, of Washington, D. C, obtained from a Japanese dealer in San Francisco, a lot of over one hun- dred specimens of that most beautiful salamander of Japan, the Red-bellied Newt (Diemyctylus pyrrhogaster). This elegant form belongs in the same genus with our common little spotted water newt (D. viridescens), though, in my opinion, it is not very closely related to it—at least, each may be at the extreme limit of the generic confines of that group. Mr. Schmid very generously loaned me half a dozen specimens from this fine collection, and these I picked out for the great differences to be seen in the color distribution on their under parts. Five of them formed the subject for a colored wall chart which I prepared, giving the animals a size of some six times that of life (linear). Employing this chart as a means of demonstration, with the aid of the living specimens in a small fish globe, I presented a brief account of these very interesting batrachians at the meeting of the Biological Society of Washington, which was held on the 8th of April, 1916. Subsequently I copied my chart with the camera, reducing the five figures to the natural size of the liv- ing animals, and these I colored as in life. This illustration is here reproduced to supplement the short description given below. Superiorly, the skin of this batrachian is rather rough, due to the presence of a fine, warty growth upon it.
