Hyperolius tettensis Peters, 1854: 628.

Holotype.

ZMB 4812, “Tette” [Tete Province, Mozambique], coll. Wilhelm Carl Hartwig Peters.

Present name.

Hyperolius argus Peters, 1854.

Remarks.

Peters (1882b: 164) mentioned the sole female type specimen collected by him at “Tette” and synonymized it with a species he described, H. flavoviridis. The latter was later considered by Laurent (1961: 74) as a synonym of another of Peters’ species, namely Hyperolius argus . The type is depicted by Peters (1882b, pl. 22, fig. 5).
