Comment: A series of grass frogs ( Fig. 7b ) collected from the lower Cuando River near the village of Jamba are provisionally assigned to the Ptychadena mossambica complex. Channing (1993) described Ptychadena mapacha from Mapacha in the eastern Caprivi , Namibia , close to our new collection, noting that it was superficially similar to P. mossambica . Morphologically they differ in having a continuous paravertebral fold from head to midbody in P. mossambica , that is interrupted in P. mapacha . Unfortunately, the current series was collected during the dry season and no vocalization was obtained for comparison with that recorded for P. mapacha ( Channing 1993 ) . Genetic analysis is underway on the P. mossambica complex to determine the specific identity of the new collection. Neither P. mossambica or P. mapacha , which are both known from the Caprivi area of Namibia , have been recorded from Angola .
