The Leptopelis spiritusnoctis

''Leptopelis spiritusnoctis'' is a species of frog in the family Arthroleptidae. It is found in West Africa from Guinea to the Niger Delta in Nigeria, the intervening countries being Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo, and Benin. This species was previously known as ''Leptopelis hyloides'', but that name is actually a junior synonym of ''Leptopelis viridis''.
