Hymenochirus boulengeri, also known as eastern dwarf clawed frog, is a species of frog in the family Pipidae. It is endemic to northeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo where it is only known from two localities. [1] [2] It is presumably ecologically similar to Hymenochirus boettgeri , an aquatic frog that occurs in still, shaded water in lowland rainforest, and in pools by slow-flowing rivers. Threats to this little-known species are unknown. [1]
