African Tree Toad
Nectophryne afra
The African tree toad (Nectophryne afra) is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is found in the West and Central Africa from southwestern Nigeria through Cameroon to Equatorial Guinea (including Bioko), Gabon, and northeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Morphologically, Nectophryne afra is very similar to Nectorphryne batesii except in their snouts and extremities. The snout of N. afra protrudes further and has a light colored line that connects the medial cleft to the upper lip: this is seen less in older specimen. N. afra limbs are also notably shorter than N. batesii.
