}}Cardioglossa elegans is a species of frog in the family Arthroleptidae. It is found in southwestern Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, and south to central Gabon.[1][4] Common name elegant long-fingered frog has been coined for it.[4]

Description

Adult males measure {{convert|23|-|29|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} and adult females {{convert|28|-|37|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} in snout–vent length.[6][7] Males have extremely long third fingers. The tympanum is visible. The dorsum is greyish brown and bears small and large symmetrical dark brown blotches with a pale outline. There are three large blotches; the first one is triangular and starts between the eyes, pointing backwards. Another two blotches follow immediately behind.[2]

Habitat and conservation

Cardioglossa elegans occur in moist lowland and degraded forests at elevations below {{convert|1000|m|abbr=on}}. Breeding takes place in small streams, and males call from rocky areas or from under bridges.[1]Cardioglossa elegans is a common species where it occurs, especially when aggregating for breeding. It can probably suffer locally from habitat loss. It is likely to occur in several protected areas.[1]
