Tomopterna sp.

Material. SIOMA NGWEZI NP: BMNH 2018.5793– 97 ( Fig. 6Q). Comments: All individuals are juveniles and were found at night close to a light-trap set to collect beetles. The main morphological characters of these specimens are: dorsal and ventral skin smooth; immaculate venter; presence of a ridge below tympanum; tympanum indistinguishable; and undivided sub-articular tubercle on first finger. The closest match on GenBank (99%) is Tomopterna sp. “Shankara” ( AY 255095), an undescribed species from Namibia ( Dawood et al. 2002). Table 4 shows the p-distances among the closest matches from GenBank.
