figures 9D; 10A–D
TYPE
LOCALITY
.— “Oban, Calabar”,
Nigeria
.
DISTRIBUTION
.— This species is widely distributed across the Guinean forest in West Africa, extending from
Guinea
to East Africa, across
Central African Republic
and
Tanzania
. In
Equatorial Guinea
, it has been recorded both from
Río Muni
, at Monte Alén (
De la Riva 1994
), and Bioko (
Mertens 1965
;
Hydeman et al. 2017
) (
Map 11B
).
COMMENTS
.— Our revision provides several new records from
Río Muni
and Bioko.
In their molecular phylogeny,
Liedtke et al. (2016)
included samples from Bioko, which seem to be closely related to the Cameroonian ones.
Márquez et al. (2000)
described the calls for
Río Muni
populations.
