An epiglottal flap is not known to exist as a phoneme in any language. However, it exists as a voiced allophone of the voiceless epiglottal plosive /ʡ/, found between vowels in Dahalo and perhaps other languages.
There is no dedicated symbol for this sound in the IPA, but it can be transcribed by adding a "short" (or non-syllabic) diacritic to the symbol for the plosive, ⟨ʡ̯⟩. (The diacritic is here placed under rather than above the letter to avoid the ascender.)
