Afrixalus upembae is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is endemic to the Democratic Republic of the Congo and is known from the lower Katanga Province (=Shaba Province),[1][2][3][4] although its true distribution might be wider;[1] possibly reaching eastern Angola.[5] It belongs to the taxonomically unresolved "Afrixalus quadrivittatus complex",[1][3][4] and it is not even clear that it is a valid species.[1]
