Ill Its existence as a British species was first recorded in the " Zoologist, " in the following notice from Mr. Bond, dated November, 1843 :* " I have the pleasure of recording in the * Zoologist' the capture of the Edible Frog (Rana esculenta. Linn. ) for the first time, I believe, in this country. Two specimens were taken by my friend, C. Thurnall, Esq. , of Duxford, in Foulmire Fen, Cambridge- shire, in September last. " Shortly afterwards a charac- teristic figure was published in the same... work ; and subsequently I received some specimens myself from Mr. Bond, which I had an opportunity of comparing and iden- tifying with the continental species, having then in my possession many living ones, which I had received from France. Mr. Bond relates, in a farther notice in the same work, f that they were very abundant in that locality, and expresses his surprise " that they were never seen before, their croaking being so very different from that of the com- mon frog ; the sound is more of a loud snore, exactly like that of the barn owl (Strix flammea).
