The female specimen RMCA 29902 was collected in ‘‘Munana, près de Moanda’’ [= Mounana near Moanda, in Lébombi-Léyou Dept.] in 1969–1970 by M. Gauduin. It has a round pupil and only one pair of sublinguals. On each side the 2 nd infralabial is fused with the sublingual. On both sides the temporal formula is 1+2. Additional morphological characters are provided in Appendix 1. New Prov. record. This is only the third individual of this rare species recorded with certainty from Gabon ( Pauwels and Vande weghe 2008; Rödel et al. 2019).
