william6Description
Keyed to 'Bufo urunguensis' in Chaning's Amphibians of Central and Southern Africa (one day I will have the more recent pan-African book); puzzled me that this is held in Sclerophrys but given that in his key it clusters with Poyntonophrynus, and there is some suggestion that it should be moved to that genus on Amphibiaweb etc., I am a little more comfortable with this as an I.D., but would appreciate confirmation.
