Afrixalus Laurent, 1944 View in CoL

The systematics of Central African Afrixalus has been turbulent (e.g., Laurent 1982; Perret 1976b), and remains unsettled. We found three species in Kokolopori, none of which were ubiquitous or rare. Frogs of this genus commonly have distinctly different color tones during the day and night.
