The De Villiers' moss frog (Arthroleptella villiersi) is a minute species of frog in the Pyxicephalidae family, which is endemic to the Western Cape, South Africa.[1] At around {{convert|22|mm|in|abbr=on}} length, it is one of the smallest regional species, though larger than the micro frog.[2]

As with other moss frogs, they do not enter water, but females lay their eggs in damp vegetation, and the frogs hatch directly from the egg capsules.[2] Its natural habitats are Mediterranean-type shrubby vegetation, rivers, and plantations. It is threatened by habitat loss.
