sensu lato are medium-sized pygmy toads with females larger than males, sexual dimorphism in skin texture (females rougher than males), and sexual dichromatism (females with complex dorsal patterns vs. males plain or partially bright yellow; females with speckles ventrally vs. males with nearly immaculate venter). No tarsal fold. Subarticular tubercles at the base of fingers and toes mostly single, and those at the joint between phalanges usually double. Tympanum not visible. Conspicuous parotoid glands, with curved outer edge. Usually two phalanges of toes III and V free of web, webbing between toes III and IV vestigial, not serrated. One or two enlarged palmar tubercles: one large, rounded to triangular-shaped very well developed outer metacarpal tubercle, and one smaller rounded inner metacarpal tubercle sometimes absent.

Dorsal pale markings in life show some differences in shape, extent, and considerable variation in color intensity between type series and holotype. This seems to be at least to some degree substrate-related, and individual toads can apparently change coloration intensity (to darker, brighter, or paler shades of each tone).

Squamosals of ZMB 91785 reduced, with only dorsalmost otic region, and negligible zygomatic and ventral ramus, which are even more reduced in ZMB 91786. ZMB 91785 neopalatines with small ventral process, in contact with the edges of sphenethmoid, and approaching, but not in contact with, maxillae and anterior ramus of pterygoid distally. BMNH 2021.7536 neopalatines approaching (right) and synostosed (left) to sphenethmoid. ZMB 91786 with ventral process only on left neopalatine. Both ZMB 91786 and BMNH 2021.7536 had single ossified prepollices and prehalluxes, and ossified and slender posteromedial processes of hyoid. In ZMB 91785, prepollex and prehallux not visible due to the resolution of the microCT-scan, and there is also no visible ossification on posteromedial processes of hyoid.

The female was found on the ground at the base of a hill with many large granite boulders, while the male was found higher up on moist ground with moss near a natural water seepage. These two individuals were kept alive for three days, upon which the coloration in the male faded to a darker yellow-greenish color (Fig.

(Pt.) is a tribute to Fernanda Lages, a researcher and professor of Genetics based in Lubango, Angola. Her continuous investment in capacity building over the last decades and dedication to various research projects and international collaborations gave opportunities and transformed the professional paths of several young Angolan biologists, and thus of research in Biology in the country. The name, built in the feminine singular genitive, also pays homage to women in science. We suggest
