Hyperolius chlorosteus is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae.
It is found in Ivory Coast, Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone.
Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers.
It is threatened by habitat loss, but remains a Least-concern species.
Hyperolius acutirostris is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to southwestern Cameroon, found as far east as the region of Yaoundé. Common name sharpsnout reed frog has been coined for it.
Hyperolius ademetzi is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to Cameroon. Its natural habitats are moist savanna, subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland, subtropical or tropical high-altitude grassland, rivers, freshwater lakes, freshwater marshes, and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Hyperolius bobirensis is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to Ghana. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Hyperolius Brachiofasciatus is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is known from its type locality, Ngoto in southwestern Central African Republic, from another locality in central Republic of the Congo, and from a number of localities in central Democratic Republic of the Congo. However, as of 2014, IUCN SSC Amphibian Specialist Group considers records other than the one from the type locality erroneous, and that this species likely is a synonym of some other species. Common name Ngoto Reed Frog has been proposed for it.
Hyperolius chrysogaster is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to the Rwenzori and northern Itombwe Mountains in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. There are also unconfirmed records from Rwanda.
Hyperolius cystocandicans is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to Kenya. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry lowland grassland, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, arable land, pastureland, and ponds. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Hyperolius laurenti is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is found in Ivory Coast and Ghana. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Hyperolius leucotaenius is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to Democratic Republic of the Congo. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, swamps, freshwater marshes, and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Hyperolius minutissimus is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. Its common names are tiny reed frog and dwarf reed frog. It is endemic to Tanzania and known from the Udzungwa Mountains and from near Njombe in the Southern Highlands.
Hyperolius mosaicus is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is found in Cameroon and Gabon, presumably also in the Republic of the Congo and Equatorial Guinea, and possibly in the western Central African Republic. Its natural habitat is tropical moist lowland forests. It is an uncommon, strictly arboreal species that breeds using water in tree holes. Presumably, it is threatened by habitat loss caused by logging, agriculture, and human settlements.
Hyperolius nienokouensis is a species of frogs in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to Ivory Coast. It is only known from the Taï National Park and one locality 30 km to the north. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, swamps, and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Hyperolius obscurus is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is a poorly known species known only from its holotype collected from Sandoa, in Kasai Province, south-western Democratic Republic of the Congo, near the border with Angola. Common name Kasai reed frog has been proposed for it.
Hyperolius ocellatus is a species of tropical West African frog in the family Hyperoliidae, that is split into the subspecies H. o. ocellatus and H. o. purpurescens. It is found in Angola, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Nigeria, Uganda, and possibly Rwanda. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, rivers, intermittent freshwater marshes, freshwater springs, rural gardens, heavily degraded former forest, ponds, and canals and ditches.
Hyperolius picturatus is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is found in northern and eastern Sierra Leone, southern Guinea, Liberia, Ivory Coast, and Ghana; its range might extend to Togo. Common names coined for this species are Tanzania reed frog and variable montane sedge frog.
Hyperolius puncticulatus is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to Unguja (=Zanzibar), Tanzania. Its natural habitats are dry forest, moist forest, and bush land. It breeds in pools, and males can be heard calling from the surrounding vegetation. Although quite common species within its small range, it is considered endangered by the IUCN because of habitat loss.
Hyperolius riggenbachi is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. Its common name is Riggenbach's reed frog. It is found on Bamenda Highlands and the Adamawa Plateau, western and central Cameroon, and Mambilla and Obudu Plateaus of eastern Nigeria. Its natural habitats are wetlands and small wooded watercourses in montane grassland. This species is very common within its small range, but is threatened by habitat loss caused by agricultural activities, wood collection, and human settlement.
Hyperolius rubrovermiculatus is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to Kenya. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, moist savanna, swamps, intermittent freshwater marshes, rural gardens, and heavily degraded former forest. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Hyperolius bocagei is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It occurs in an area spanning from Angola and northwestern Zambia through southern Democratic Republic of the Congo to southwestern Tanzania. It lives in seasonally flooded, lowland grassy pans. It may suffer localized habitat loss and degradation, but is not considered threatened overall.
