Leptodactylodon blanci is a species of frog in the family Arthroleptidae. It is endemic to Gabon and only known from its type locality, Reserve de Faune de la Lope.[2] The specific name blanci honours Charles Pierre Blanc, a French herpetologist. Common name Lope egg frog has been coined for this species.[3]
This poorly known species is presumed to be associated with rocky places near streams in lowland rainforest. It occurs in a protected area, but if more widely distributed, it would probably be affected by habitat loss.[1]
