Sclerophrys superciliaris (Boulenger 1888) View in CoL

Material: One (1) specimen. Doumaye: GFMJ 1314. Fig. 6B, C View Fig .

Comments: One individual was brought to our camp by a local civil servant, Eric Dipanda, who found the toad on the main dirt road running through Doumaye (02.23373°S, 013.60008°E). This is the first provincial record and most southern record for the species ( Barej et al. 2011), although Frétey and Blanc (2000) reports the species from the Republic of Congo without precise locality information. It is best detected by its bright eye-shine in the dark (DCB, pers. obs.).
