Leptopelis brevirostris (Werner, 1898)
The following is translated from the original decription by Werner (1898):
Very closely related to H. rufus, but palatal teeth approximated in a very strong, on the line connecting the edges lying behind choanae groups. Snout as long or shorter than the eye diameter, Head shorter and wider than in H. rufus (ratio of its width to total length of the frog is 1:2.9-3.1, in H. rufus is 1:3.4). Snout very clearly visible from below, as are the nostrils, which occurs to some extent in H. rufus and var. notata, while otherwise the mouth and nostrils are not visible in the least from the bottom, Skin of the upper side more or less shagreened. Webbing and subarticular tubercles as in H. rufus, as is metatarsal tubercle, ventral skin, size (1/2 eye diameter) and distance (from eye) to the tympanum, length of the hind limbs, etc.
Dorsal coloration is reddish-brown, light purple-red or silver gray, solid, or (the purple-red type) with purple spots and dots, producing, among other things, a faint cross-barring between the eyes. In this specimen the lower jaw margins, the greater part of the throat and the sides of the body are brown, the belly mottled brown. A white patch under the eye is never present, or even hinted. In the remaining species, the sides of the body are brown dotted or monochrome.
