摘　　要：The specimens, originally named Rana yadongensis (Wu,1977), from Yadong and Nyalam, Xizang(Tibet) were examined and compared with the specimens [Specimens of Paa polunini(No.1975.1036 et al.) and Paa blanfordii (No.1975.1266 et al.) in Museum National d’Historie Naturelle,Paris were examined] of topotypes of Paa polunini and Paa blanfordii from Nepal kept in Paris Museum National d’Historie naturelle. The results indicated that Rana yadongensis from Yadong is a synonym of Paa blanfordii and Paa yadongensis from Nyalam is identified as Paa polunini(Smith,1951). Morphorlogical characters of Paa polunini were not reported in literature of China, in this paper its characters are described. Paa polunini (Smith, 1951) Diagnosis. Paa polunini Smith is closely related to Paa blanfordii Boulenger, but differs from the latter as follows:(1) dorso-lateral folds present; (2) skin of back of body and four limbs covered with numerous granules; (3) colour brown above, uniform, back without spots; (4)no cross-bars on dorsal surface of four limbs. Paa blanfordii has: (1) dorso-lateral folds absent; (2) skin of back covered with round warts and glandular ridges; (3) dorsum and lateral sides of body with distinct spots; (4) black crossbars on four limbs.The specimens, originally named Rana yadongensis (Wu,1977), from Yadong and Nyalam, Xizang(Tibet) were examined and compared with the specimens [Specimens of Paa polunini(No.1975.1036 et al.) and Paa blanfordii (No.1975.1266 et al.) in Museum National d'Historie Naturelle,Paris were examined] of topotypes of Paa polunini and Paa blanfordii from Nepal kept in Paris Museum National d'Historie naturelle.
