TYPE LOCALITY.— “ Liberia ” .

DISTRIBUTION.— This species extends over a vast area ranging from Guinea to Cameroon, including Equatorial Guinea, where it has been recorded from Monte Alén ( De la Riva 1994). There are no records from Bioko ( Map 15A).

COMMENTS.— We provide an additional record of the species in Río Muni.

Currently, the populations of Equatorial Guinea are ascribed to the subspecies A. f. brevipalmatus ( Amiet 2012) . Descriptions of the advertisement calls from Monte Alén were provided by Bosch et al. (2000) (as A. brevipalmatus [Ahl, 1931]).
