Nyctimantis Boulenger, 1882 was considered a monotypic genus for over a century. In a recent phylogenetic analysis of the Lophyohylini tribe with more than 96% of its representatives, Nyctimantis was redefined with the well-supported inclusion of some species from the genus Aparasphenodon, Argenteohyla and Corythomantis (Blotto et al. 2020). Therefore, the genus Nyctimantis currently consists of seven described species: N. arapapa (Pimenta, Napoli Haddad, 2009); N. bokermanni (Pombal, 1993); N. brunoi (Miranda-Ribeiro, 1920); N. galeata (Pombal, Menezes, Fontes, Nunes, Rocha Van Sluys, 2012); N. pomba (Assis, Santana, Silva, Quintela Feio, 2013); N. rugiceps Boulenger (1882) and N. siemersi (Mertens, 1937).

Tomopterna pulchra (Boulenger, 1896) was described from Lake Tanganyika based on a single specimen. It was synonymised with Tomopterna tuberculosa (Boulenger, 1882) by Loveridge (1957) who noted that it did not fully agree with the description of T. tuberculosa, especially in the difference in dorsal colouration.

We performed a molecular and cytogenetic analysis on different Mantellinae species and revised the available chromosomal data on this group to provide an updated assessment of its karyological diversity and evolution. Using a fragment of the mitochondrial 16S rRNA, we performed a molecular taxonomic identification of the samples that were used for cytogenetic analyses. A comparative cytogenetic analysis, with Giemsa's staining, Ag-NOR staining and sequential C-banding + Giemsa + CMA + DAPI was performed on eight species: sp.
