Arthroleptis lameerei is a species of frog in the family Arthroleptidae. It is found in northeastern Angola, southeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, and western Burundi, though the exact range is poorly known.[1][2] There is some doubt whether it is distinct from Arthroleptis xenochirus.[2][3] The specific name lameerei honours Auguste Lameere, a Belgian entomologist.[4][3] Common names Lameere's squeaker, Lameer's squeaker, and Katanga screeching frog have been coined for this species.[2][4][3]
