Hyperolius Rapp, 1842

Our surveys recorded five species of this genus which belong to two divergent clades ( Portik et al. 2019): (i) H. cf. cinnamomeoventris , H. cf. langi , H. cf. platyceps with high color pattern variation but rather indistinct sexual dichromatism; and (ii) H. ocellatus , H. phantasticus with a relatively stable color pattern but distinct sexual dichromatism. Three of the five species are identified to nominal species with some caveats as discussed below.
