Abstract

The article discusses a morphological study on the systematics of Phrynobatrachus scheffleri and P. kakamikro sp. n. which are frog species both found in East Africa. It says that the study used the specimens from museum collections and that morphological characters include snoutvent length (SVL), dorsal skin texture, and interorbital space (IO). It tells that DNA Sequence alignment was conducted and that frequency information was acquired via Fast Fourier Transformation. It explores the physical characteristics, the molecular genetics, and the distribution and life history of P. scheffleri and P. kakamikro sp. n.
