Werneria iboundji is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Gabon and only known from its type locality, Mont Iboundji. [1] [2] Only two specimens are known, collected from among rocks at the edge of a plunge pool at the base of a large waterfall in lowland forest, at 560 m (1,840 ft) above sea level. It is threatened by logging, which would likely negatively affect the micro-climate—the species depends on high humidity. [1]
