Comment
The sister taxon of Hyla meridionalis according to the original publication. Stöck, Dufresnes, Litvinchuk, Lymberakis, Biollay, Berroneau, Borzée, Ghali, Ogielska, and Perrin, 2012, Mol. Phylogenet. Evol., 65: 1–9, reported on the genetic diversity among populations and provided a dot map of the range (including their "Hyla new sp. 1", subsequently named as Hyla carthaginiensis. See Dufresnes and Crochet, 2020, Zootaxa, 4759: 597–599, for range map. Dufresnes, Berroneau, Dubey, Litvinchuk, and Perrin, 2020, Sci. Rep. (Nature, London), 10 (5502): 1–10, discussed the genetics of the contact zone of this species with Hyla meridionalis. Nouira, Blanc, Crochet, Frétey, Géniez, Ineich, De Massary, Ohler, Tlili, and Lescure, 2022, Bull. Soc. Herpetol. France, 180: 12, discussed the species in Tunisia.
