Hyperolius poweri is a species of frogs in the family Hyperoliidae. It is found in southeastern coast of South Africa and southern Mozambique. The specific name poweri honours John Hyacinth Power, Irish-born director of the McGregor Museum who collected amphibians as well as reptiles and plants. Accordingly, common names Power's reed frog and Power's long reed frog have been proposed for this species.
Breviceps poweri, the Power's rain frog or Power's short-headed frog, is a species of frog in the family Brevicipitidae. It is found in northeastern Angola east through Zambia, southern Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Malawi, to western Mozambique and northeastern Zimbabwe; possibly in Namibia. The specific name poweri honours John Hyacinth Power, Irish-born director of the McGregor Museum who collected amphibians as well as reptiles and plants.
The Cameroon clawed frog is a species of frog in the family Pipidae found in Angola, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, and possibly Sudan. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, heavily degraded former forest, and ponds. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Andre's clawed frog is a species of frog in the family Pipidae. It is known with certainty only from coastal Cameroon, northeastern Gabon, western Central African Republic, and northwestern Angola. It presumably occurs in the intervening Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Equatorial Guinea.
Xenopus boumbaensis, the Mawa clawed frog, is a species of frog in the family Pipidae. It is known from a few localities in central and south-eastern Cameroon, and from north-western Republic of Congo and extreme south-western Central African Republic; it probably occurs more widely in the central African forest belt, but identification is difficult: it is one of the cryptic species that resemble Xenopus fraseri, from which it can be distinguished by chromosome number (2n=72) and a male advertisement call of a single note.

Müller's platanna, also known as Müller's clawed frog, is a species of frog in the family Pipidae found in Angola, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ivory Coast, Eswatini, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Togo, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
The Bouchia clawed frog is a species of frog in the family Pipidae found in the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, and possibly the Republic of the Congo. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, swamps, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, rural gardens, and heavily degraded former forests.
The bob-tailed weaver is a species of bird in the family Ploceidae. It is monotypic within the genus Brachycope. It is found in Cameroon, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, and Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Bates's shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is found in Cameroon, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. This large black shrew was first described by the British zoologist Guy Dollman in 1915, the type locality being the vicinity of the Como River in Gabon. The exact definition of this species is unclear; it is often included in Fraser's musk shrew, or reported as Wimmer's shrew. Its karyotype is 2n=50, FN-76, which is identical to the Nigerian shrew, and the species complex is in need of a thorough revision.
Xenopus lenduensis, the Lendu Plateau clawed frog, is a species of frog in the family Pipidae endemic to the Orientale Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Xenopus allofraseri, the false Fraser's frog, is a species of frog native to Central and Western Africa. It inhabits wetlands and forests in countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, Guinea and Angola. It occurs in elevations from 30 to 1,218 m. It's a Least Concern species on the IUCN Red List, though populations are decreasing.
Xenopus mellotropicalis, the Cameroon clawed frog, is a species of frog from the genus Xenopus. It's listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List and populations are currently stable. It inhabits forests and wetlands in Central and West African countries which includes Gabon, Cameroon, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Congo. It's presence is unclear in countries such as Equatorial Guinea, Angola and Central African Republic. It has been recorded in elevations from 75 to 628 m.
