Cardioglossa dorsalis (Peters, 1875)

Hylambates dorsalis is a name given to a frog specimen now in the Berlin's Natural History Museum. It is a species inquirenda, a name that cannot be related to any known species in the wild.[2] Its type locality is "Yoruba (Lagos)";[2] however, this seems erroneous as the holotype appears to be an Asian member of the family Rhacophoridae. Distribution and ecology of this frog are unknown.[1]
