Phlyctimantis boulengeri is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. Its distribution area consists of three disjunct areas: western one in Ivory Coast, southeastern Guinea, Liberia, and southern Ghana, and another one in southeastern Nigeria, western Cameroon, and Gabon, and finally, the Bioko island (Equatorial Guinea).[1][2] The record from Gabon may refer to Phlyctimantis leonardi, and the western populations might belong to an undescribed species.[1] It occurs in secondary forests, forest clearings, and farm bush. Breeding takes place in larger temporary ponds in forest.[1]
This species can be locally very abundant. It does not face major threats although it probably cannot tolerate complete opening of its habitat.[1]
