19.23333] (Laurent I964a:I49). Huambo: “Bimbi” [-11.81667, 15.83333] (Monard 1938:87). 
Undetermined Locality: “with no precise identification” (Laurent 1954a:78), “areas of forest and 
savanna in the north and northeast of Angola” (Cei 1977:17). 
Taxonomic and distributional notes: Poynton and Broadley (1987) recognized that Hyper- 
olius kivuensis Ah\, 1931 is easily confused with quinquevittatusBocsLgQ, 1866, though 
they stated that the latter is generally smaller and slimmer. Whereas Laurent (1954a) treated 
H. multifasciatus (Ahl, 1931) as a junior synonym of//, quinquevittatus, Pickersgill (2007a) con¬ 
sidered it to be a subspecies of Hyperolius kivuensis. Schiotz (1999) and Channing (2001) provid¬ 
ed some additional records, though without information about the source. 
Hyperolius langi Noble, 1924 Lang’s Reed Frog 
Hyperolius langi Noble 1924:266, pi. 39, fig. 1. Holotype: AMNH 9983 (collector Mr. Lang). Type locality: 
“Niapu” Democratic Republic of Congo. 
Hyperolius langi: Monard (1937a:40, 1938:95). 
Hyperolius platyeephalus langi: Cei (1977:17). 
Hyperolius langi: Schiotz (1999:149), Frost (2016). 
Global conservation status (lUCN): Least Concern. 
Global distribution: The species is known from Angola, the northeastern Democratic Repub¬ 
lic of Congo and Uganda. 
Ocurrences in Angola (Map 45): The 
species has been recorded from Benguela 
Province. Benguela: “Ebanga” [-12.73333, 
14.73333] (Monard 1937a:40, 1938:95). 
Undetermined Locality: “plateaus regions” 
(Cei 1977:17). 
Taxonomic and distributional notes: 
Monard (1937a, 1938) reported H. langi from 
“Ebanga” in southwestern Angola. There are 
also two other species of Hyperolius that occur 
at this location, H. benguellensis (Bocage, 
1893) and H. bocagei Steindachner, 1867. 
The species that Monard (1937a, 1938) identi¬ 
fied as H. langi probably corresponds to 
H. bocagei, especially as it does not agree with 
the original description for H. benguellensis. 
However, examination of the type material of 
H. langi is required to confirm this. Distribution of Hyperolius langi in Angola. 
Hyperolius maestus Rochebrune, 1885 Cabinda Reed Frog (Endemic) 
Hyperolius Maestus Rochcbmnc 1885:91. Type: Presumably in MNHN (collector unknown), unrecognized as 
a type, if still extant, formerly in Museo Bouvieri. Type locality: “Locum Landana dictum, in foliis 
Musamm” [= Landana, Cabinda enclave], Angola. 
Hyperolius maestus: Frost (1985:212, 2014). 
Hyperolius {Hyperolius) marmoratus: Fretey et al. (2011:32). 
Global conservation status (lUCN): Data Deficient. 
Global distribution: The species is known from Angola.
