Hyperolius guttulatus Günther, 1858

Spotted Reed Frog

Material: Female, NGK-Nimba 0052 ( Fig. 9D).

Comments: Hyperolius guttulatus lives in the humid savannah zone and clearings within rainforests ( Schiøtz 1967; Rödel 2000; Assemian et al. 2006; Kouamé et al. 2015). The species usually reproduces in larger, permanent ponds with floating vegetation ( Schiøtz 1967; Kouamé et al. 2015). We found five males calling at night between rice paddies around the Yéalé village (07°31.928’N, 008°25.401’W; 425 m asl). A female measured 37.0 mm.
