Diagnosis. A medium-sized Arthroleptis that is very similar to A. variabilis but readily distinguished from that species by lacking a midline gular stripe (Fig. 2) and by having a relatively longer snout and, in females, a fourth fmger that is longer than the first and second fingers (see Variation section). In addition, the posterior surface of the thigh of A. perreti is dark gray with many small white spots (Fig. 3)
