Abstract
T HE genus Neoscaphiopus was proposed by Taylor (1942) for the species N. noblei, described from the Upper Pliocene Rexroad formation of Meade County, Kansas. The species was represented only by the holotype, consisting of two rather well developed vertebrae and the coccyx, all fused. For a second specimen from this deposit, an essentially normal spadefoot sacrococcyx, he proposed the name Scaphiopus diversus. At that time no other fossil specimens of spadefoot toads were known from the Upper Pliocene.
