Abstract
Among the specimens collected from the Lysite beds of the L0We1 Eocene on Bridger Creek, Wyoming ,3, by the Amherst College expeditionb of 1905, is a well-preserved skull of an amphibian.It is about 114 inches long and represents an individual about the size of a mudpuppy (Neotums).Though Amphibians must have lived in the ponds and moist places then, as both before and since Eocene times, I believe none has heretofore been found.The Lysite represents flood-plain deposits, under a rather arid climate, as do most of our western Eocene epicontinental deposits, but there must have been st1eams and moist places, and this form presumably lived in or near some such place.
