Nominator @
Cwmhiraeth: is not finished but I can review the material here and the nominator can ping me to do a final check. I actually had to look up the definition of wildlife to see if flora was included in the definition... it is. The article has been 5x expanded from 114 characters to 4559 characters; it was nominated within the timeframe. The article is neutral, and uses the correct inline citations. The QPQ is completed. The article appears to be free of copyright violations. There is also a lovely image in the article and it appear to be free, although it is not part of the nomination.

@
Cwmhiraeth: I couldn't access the source you linked in Google Books, so I couldn't tell what was going on here. As Euphlyctis is a genus rather than a species, it looks like somethings wrong, but I couldn't figure out how to fix it. Thanks,

@
SchreiberBike: The book gave a species for which we did not have an article so I linked it to the genus. However the genus article states that it is an Asian genus whereas this article is about Africa, so I think I will just state the species name but remove the link.

Actually it states that there is one endemic species of frog, the monotypic genus Euphlyctis being endemic to the eastern part of the country. There is some confusion here so I have now removed the genus name entirely.
