Hyperolius marginatus Peters, 1854: 627.

Holotype.

ZMB 4806, “Macanga“ [Makanga Region, Tete Province, Mozambique], coll. Wilhelm Carl Hartwig Peters.

Present name.

Hyperolius marginatus Peters, 1854.

Remarks.

Depicted in Peters (1882b, pl. 22, fig. 8) and Tornier (1896, pl. 4, fig. 89). Bauer et al. (1995: 44) erroneously listed ZMB 1806 as holotype. Peters visited the Macanga region north and northwest of Tete because of its goldmines. Here he also collected the holotype of H. marginatus on the Pomfe River (one of the northern tributaries of the Zambezi) on 12 June 1845 (Hand 1848; Peters 1882b: 166; map in Futterer 1895).
