Distribution
. This species has been recorded from
Gabon
,
Cameroon
and
Equatorial Guinea
. In
Equatorial Guinea
the only record is based on a single photographed specimen from
Río Muni
at Monte Alén National Park (
01°39′25″N
,
10°16′10″E
) (
Bauer & Pauwels 2002
) (
Map 7C
); but see comments.
Comments.
This species was reported in
Equatorial Guinea
based on a single specimen sighted and photographed in Monte Alén National Park under the bark of a tree,
Dacryodes buettneri
(Engl.) H.J. Lam (Burseraceae)
, at
1.5 m
above the ground (
Bauer & Pauwels 2002
). However, confirmation throughout a detailed morphological revision would be advisable, since at first sight it could have been misidentified for
Hemidactylus muriceus
.
