Hyperolius discodactylus

Adult males measure 27–35 mm (1.1–1.4 in) and adult females 30–39 mm (1.2–1.5 in) in snout–urostyle length. The fingers bear large discs and are up to half-webbed. The toes have somewhat smaller discs and are about half-webbed.[3] The dorsum is brownish to orange, either uniform or displaying diffuse dark spots. A dark canthal line is present. Calling males have bright green vocal sac. The venter is bright orange.[4]

Hyperolius discodactylus occurs in montane forests at elevations of 1,600–2,700 m (5,200–8,900 ft) above sea level. It is associated with rivers, streams, and swamps, its presumed breeding habitat.[1]

It is mostly a rarely encountered species. Precise information is lacking but it might be threatened by habitat loss caused by agriculture, wood extraction, and human settlements. However, it is present in a number of protected areas: Bwindi and Ruwenzori Mountains National Parks in Uganda, Nyungwe National Park in Rwanda, Bururi Nature Reserve in Burundi, and Kahuzi-Biega and Virunga National Parks in the Democratic Republic of Congo.[1]
