Phrynobatrachus dalcqi

Phrynobatrachus dalcqi grow to 37 mm (1.5 in) in snout–vent length. The body is compact and the head is short, with a pointed snout. The fingers and the toes bear terminal discs. The toes have distinct basal webbing. Skin is dorsally warty, more so in males than in females. There is a pair of long ridges in the scapular area as well as a medial horseshoe-shaped dorsal ridge. Dorsal colouration is grey-brown with indistinct darker patterning. A light vertebral stripe may be present. The legs have dark crossbars. The venter is pale grey with darker grey stippling (more prominent in females). A clear median line runs through the throat to the pectoral region.^[3]

Ecology of Phrynobatrachus dalcqi is poorly known.^[1][3] It is known from elevations of 1,700–1,800 m (5,600–5,900 ft) above sea level and is presumed to be a forest species that breeds in water.^[1] Threats to it are unknown. It is not known to occur in any protected areas.^[1]
