Xenopus Wagler, 1827 View in CoL

Based on current knowledge, this species-rich genus of pipid frogs appears to be surprisingly represented by only a single species in the central Congo. However, the morphology of species of the X. amieti group, to which this single species belongs, is relatively uniform ( Evans et al. 2015, 2019) so other overlooked species may be present.
