Afrotyphlops rouxestevae is a species of snake in the Typhlopidae family.[1][2] It is endemic to Cameroon[1][2] and only known from the holotype collected from Douala before 1974.[1]
The specific name honours Rolande Roux-Estève, who provided the first description of this taxon in 1974 but did not formally describe it as a new species, pending collection of further specimens.[2]
