Guibe’s Ridged Frog

Material: PEM A10934‒10936 (43); SAIAB 101009 (32) and 190310 (44a).

Comment: Previously only reported from four localities in eastern and northern Angola: Muita ( Laurent 1950, 1954), Cazombo ( Laurent 1964), Dundo ( Laurent 1964), and Cangandala (Ceríaco et al. 2016). Common and widespread in adjacent Zambia and into the panhandle of the Okavango Delta ( Channing 2001). The new material extends the distribution into extreme southeast Angola, and about 150 km up the lower Cuando River.
