126 BULLETIN AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY NO. 253 found in disjunct populations at high elevations. Too little is known of the details of geographic distribution of species within New Guinea to support speculation about distribution patterns and areas of endemism. On a broader scale, however, the diversity of microhylids very likely relates to their reproductive mode that divorces them from the need to lay their eggs in water. New Guinea is an extremely mountainous island Archbold, R., and A. L. Rand 1935. Results of the Archbold Expeditions. No. 7. Summary of the 1933–1934 Papuan Expedition. Bull. Am. Mus. Nat.

Under such conditions, upland standing water habitats are not abundant, and streams tend to be torrential, but moist terrestrial and arboreal habitats are everywhere and are utilized by microhylids from sea level to the highest mountains. A parallel situation is in the Admiralty and Solomon islands, where a diversity of platymantine ranid frogs, all with direct embryonic development, dominate the faunas. Trans. Zool. Soc.
