About

Bates's tree toad is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is recorded in an area running from southern Cameroon to south-western Gabon through south-western Central African Republic to north-eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo; it presumably occurs in Equatorial Guinea and Congo, and perhaps in Nigeria, but has not yet been recorded there. Its common and specific names commemorate George Latimer Bates (1863–1940), an American naturalist who traveled in West Africa.
