Distribution.
This species extends from
Sierra Leona
to
Uganda
, southward to northern
Angola
. In
Equatorial Guinea
it has been recorded in Bioko (
Bocage 1895
a
, 1903;
Drewes
et al.
1999
) at Ureca (
Mertens 1964a
), and in
Río Muni
at Monte Alén National Park (
Lasso
et al.
2002
), including Monte Mitra (
Gonwouo & Nsang 2005
). There is a record from iNaturalist at Moka, Bioko (
03°20′00.04″N
,

) (

).
Comments.
Martínez y
Sáez (1886)
and Pérez del
Val (2001)
recorded
H. lineatus
based on a misidentification of the specimens MNCN 20286–20289 and MNCN 20290–20293, which are herein reidentified as
H. smaragdina
. As a result, the first record of
H. lineatus
for
Río Muni
corresponds to
Lasso
et al.
(2002)
. Mertens (1964) reported a case of predation over a juvenile of
Amnirana albolabris
(Hallowell, 1856)
(
Anura
:
Ranidae
) from Ureca, Bioko.
