SUMMARY
As of 2004, the validity of this species is in question (Channing & Tandy, 2004). It has variously been considered as a subspecies of both Poyntonophrynus dombensis and P. fenoulheti, and Channing considers that it might be a synonym of P. hoeschi. Tandy considers that it is likely a synonym of P. dombensis.
