Hyperolius bobiri splayed out on a leaf
This frog's scientific name comes from the Bobiri Forest Reserve, where it was first discovered. Bobiri is still one of its only two known locations. You'd think it would have the English name of Bobiri Reed Frog, but that name was already taken by Hyperolius sylvaticus, which was also described from a specimen found in the Bobiri Forest Reserve.

''Hyperolius bobirensis'' is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to Ghana. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
