na in the north and notheast of Angola” (Cei 1977:17). 
Taxonomic and distributional notes: Ferret (1976a) suggested that Leptopelis anchietae 
(Boeage, 1873) is closely related to Leptopelis nordequatorialis Ferret, 1966 and L. oryi Inger, 
1968.

Global conservation status (lUCN): Least Concern. 
Global distribution: A forest-associated species distributed broadly in Central Africa, extend¬ 
ing from southeastern Nigeria through 
Cameroon and Gabon, east into the Central 
African Republic, and south through the Dem¬ 
ocratic Republic of Congo to northern Angola. 
Ocurrences in Angola (Map 68): The 
species occurs in the Cabinda enclave and in 
the extreme northeast of Lunda Norte 
Province. Cabinda: “Chinchoxo” [-5.10000, 
12.10000] (Peters 1877a:618; Boeage

[-7.36667, 20.83333] (Laurent 1954a:75). 
Taxonomic and distributional notes: 
Many species of Leptopelis in Central Africa 
have been confused with Leptopelis aubryi, 
which has a broad distribution and occurs both 
within forests and along the margins of forests. Map 68. Distribution of Leptopelis aubryi in Angola.
