}}Phrynobatrachus calcaratus, the Boutry river frog or Peters' puddle frog, is a species of frog in the family Phrynobatrachidae.[1][ It is widely distributed in West Africa (Senegal, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo, Benin, and Nigeria, and possibly adjacent countries) and Middle Africa (Cameroon, Central African Republic, and Bioko (Equatorial Guinea), possibly wider).[1] However, this nominal species is a species complex consisting of several species.[1]]DescriptionPhrynobatrachus calcaratus is a small frog with a rounded snout and a moderately warty skin, growing to a snout-to-vent length of about {{convert|11|to|19|mm|1|abbr=on}} for males and {{convert|16|to|23|mm|1|abbr=on}} for females. The digits do not have enlarged tips and the fingers and toes are largely unwebbed. Most animals have a uniformly coloured greenish or brownish dorsal surface, slightly darker around the warts, and a whitish belly, but some have a spinal band of red with yellowish borders and a few have a red transverse band. The male has a prominent black vocal sac on the throat during the breeding season.[2]HabitatThis species is found in gallery forests in humid savannas, secondary forest along streams in the forest zone, and farm bush; it can also colonize savanna that has not burned. It is found mainly in lowland habitats, but elevations of {{convert|1200|m|abbr=on}} in Cameroon.[1] ReproductionThe males call near suitable waterbodies and the females lay clutches of a few hundred eggs which hatch in three days. Tadpole growth is fast and the animals become mature at four to five months. They have a short lifespan and probably die within a few months of spawning.[2] StatusPhrynobatrachus calcaratus is listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as being of "least concern" as it is an adaptable species with a very wide range and its numbers appear to be stable.[1]References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite journal | author = IUCN SSC Amphibian Specialist Group | title = Phrynobatrachus calcaratus | journal = IUCN Red List of Threatened Species | volume= 2017 | page = e.T58100A18392321 | year = 2017 | url = https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/58100/18392321 | doi = 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2017-2.RLTS.T58100A18392321.en | accessdate = 5 December 2018}}
