Females are significantly larger than males (SUL: Z = -3.814, p <0.001, Nmales = 22, Nfemales = 29), mean SUL in females 53.6 mm and 48.0 mm in males, and consequently possess longer extremities (FM: Z = -4.395, p <0.001; TI: Z = -4.746, p <0.001; FL: Z = -4.623, p <0.001), broader heads (HW: Z = -3.570, p <0.001) and longer snouts (EN: Z = -2.533, p <0.01; ES: Z = -3.285, p <0.05) in absolute measurements (Tables 1 and 2). However, ratios are predominantly similar between the two sexes, with males only showing higher values in HW/SUL (Z = -2.796, p <0.01), IT/FL (Z = -1.978, p <0.05) and TD/SUL (Z = -2.701, p <0.01); for details see Tables 1 and 2. Both sexes possess enlarged tusk-like prolongations in the lower jaw as well as the name-bearing

in webbing formulae of examined specimens in the covered distribution range corresponds to the extent in the type series (Table 7); although skin folds running along toes in the male syntype are more distinct than in many other specimens, showing an almost fully extended webbing state. Dorsal ridges form either slender lines as in the male syntype (Fig. 3, see also Fig. 4b, c) or are short and knob like (Fig. 4a). Number of distinct dorsal ridges (counted from spine to flank) range between two and six, usually three to five ridges per body site. However, both characters were not recognisable due to preservation artefacts in many specimens. Glandular ridges on tibia are usually built of small to large conic glands and form more or less interrupted lines (Fig. 4

). Dorsal colouration (in life) varies from uniform brownish, to mottled patterns with greenish or light brownish background and darker spots, usually arranged along dorsum. Male femoral glands are rose-coloured but colouration may be attenuated by the ventral colouration (Fig. 4e). Belly colouration (in alcohol) ranges from completely pale, dirty whitish, dark throat and pale belly, dark with few pale markings, to entirely dark colouration, showing no sex-dependant colour differentiation.

), the distribution areas further diminish dramatically, especially for the Freetown Peninsula subclade. While IUCN categories remain constant for the widely distributed subclade, the Freetown Peninsula subclade possesses an AOO of only 20 km2 classifying it as EN and an EOO of 34 km2 placing it as "Critically Endangered (CR)" if treated as its own taxonomic unit.
