Bibron’s Grass Frog

Material: One female, NGK-Nimba 0104 ( Fig. 13 D View Fig ), GoogleMaps and one male, NGK-Nimba 0105. GoogleMaps

Comments   GoogleMaps : We found P. bibroni in the Yéalé village (07°31.928’N, 008°25.401’W; 425 m asl) along road puddles during the rainy season, and in cocoa and coffee plantations during the dry season. This frog is known from humid savannahs, but was also reported from dry savannahs and open degraded forests (Rödel 2000; Channing and Rödel 2019). The body size of males ranged from 39.0–46.0 mm (N = 6), while females reached 46.5–57.0 mm (N = 7).
