Abstract: In this paper,morphologic characteristics among 27 populations of original green toads Bufo viridis from west China were compared.In meantime,their characters were contrasted with the three toads of the Turkmen and Kashmir from adjacents areas,Bufo danatensis,Bufo latastii and Bufo stomaticus (Kashmir).The results show that they may be divided into 4 types which differ from each other in morphologic characters (Table 1).We agree to the suggestion made by Borkin et al.(1988) that the tetraloid toads from Xinjiang area are temporarily placed in Bufo danatensis.Now this species includes 3 subspecies in Xinjiang area:Bufo d.danatensis Pisanetz,1978;Bufo d.pewzowi Bedriaga,1898;Bufo d.taxkorensis subsp.nov..The toad from Zamda,west Xizang (Tibet) is considered to be a distinct species,Bufo zamdaensis sp.nov.
