Blommersia Angolafa
''Blommersia angolafa'' is a species of frogs in the family Mantellidae. This recently described species is Endemism, endemic to eastern Madagascar. The specific epithet (zoology), specific epithet is derived from the term “angolafa” or “angolafo”, which is the Malagasy language, Malagasy vernacular name used by the Betsimisaraka people for the ''Dypsis'' palm species (mostly for ''Dypsis lastelliana''), whose leaves and prophylls are the habitat for this frog. Description ''Blommersia angolafa'' is a small frog, with a body size of 17–21 mm, enlarged tips on fingers and toes, and without any dark area in the tympanic and frenal region, present in the other ''Blommersia''. ''B. angolafa'' has a rather uniform dorso-lateral colouration, shading from yellowish–light brownish to dark brown, with light-bluish spots on the flanks and light-bluish terminal parts of the fingers and toes. The species also appears to be chromatically sexually dimorphic. In fact, males diff ...

Blommersia Domerguei
''Blommersia domerguei'' is a species of frog in the family Mantellidae. It is endemic to Madagascar. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, subtropical or tropical high-altitude grassland, swamps, and heavily degraded former forest. It is threatened by habitat loss Habitat destruction (also termed habitat loss or habitat reduction) occurs when a natural habitat is no longer able to support its native species. The organisms once living there have either moved elsewhere, or are dead, leading to a decrease ....

Amphibians Of Sub-Saharan Africa
Amphibians are ectothermic, anamniote, anamniotic, tetrapod, four-limbed vertebrate animals that constitute the class (biology), class Amphibia. In its broadest sense, it is a paraphyletic group encompassing all Tetrapod, tetrapods, but excluding the amniotes (tetrapods with an amniotic membrane, such as modern reptiles, birds and mammals). All extant taxon, extant (living) amphibians belong to the monophyletic subclass (biology), subclass Lissamphibia, with three living order (biology), orders: Anura (frogs and toads), Urodela (salamanders), and Gymnophiona (caecilians). Evolved to be mostly semiaquatic, amphibians have adapted to inhabit a wide variety of habitats, with most species living in freshwater ecosystem, freshwater, wetland or terrestrial ecosystems (such as riparian woodland, fossorial and even arboreal habitats). Their biological life cycle, life cycle typically starts out as aquatic animal, aquatic larvae with gills known as tadpoles, but some species have devel ...
