It is a small, brown forest species formerly referred to L. modestus, but distinguished by differences in advertisement call and the sequence of the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene. The specific allocation of certain related populations of Leplopelis in East and West Africa is briefly discussed.1 aKöhler, Jörn1 aBwong, Beryl, A.1 aSchick, Susanne1 aVeith, Michael1 aLötters, Stefan  u<Go to ISI>://PREV20070001340301871nas a2200181   4500008004100000245015300041210006900194260001100263300001200274490000700286520126200293100001901555700002001574700002001594700001901614700002101633856003501654       2005                        eng d00aContribution to the taxonomy of hyperoliid frogs (Amphibia: Anura: Hyperoliidae): advertisement calls of twelve species from East and Central Africa0 aContribution to the taxonomy of hyperoliid frogs Amphibia Anura   cApr 05  a127-1420 v403 a<p>Detailed advertisement call descriptions are provided for 12 species of hyperoliid frogs (Afrixalus dorsalis, A. osorioi, A. paradorsalis, A. quadrivittatus, Hyperolius cystocandicans, H. glandicolor H. langi, H. montanus, H. phantasticus, H. puncticulatus, Leptopelis christyi, Phlyctimantis cf. boulengeri) from different localities in East Africa and Gabon. The call of each species is figured in a spectrogram and waveform. East African populations of frogs of the Afrixalus fulvovittatus complex are considered to represent A. quadrivittatus (formerly a junior synonym of A. fulvovittatus). Its advertisement call differs significantly from West African populations reported as A. vittiger. The allocation of green and golden colour morphs from Mount Kenya to the species H. cystocandicans is confirmed by bioacoustics. The presence of H. kuligae in East Africa (Uganda) is doubted. Based on morphological comparisons with type specimens, calls of Phlyctimantis recorded in Gabon are tentatively referred to R boulengeri. The species is supposed to occur in Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon and the Republic of Congo according to advertisement call comparisons. West African populations of Phlyctimantis may represent an undescribed species.</p>
