Guibemantis pulcherrimus is a species of frog in the family Mantellidae. It is endemic to forests in the northern part Madagascar. It was discovered to be a distinct species in 2023, and can be distinguished from Guibemantis pulcher through its DNA, vocalizations and location.^[1] Additionally, they have more, but smaller, spots on their back, and less pronounced brown patches on their sides.^[1] Guibemantis pulcherrimus is named for its beauty, 'pulcherrimus' being Latin for more beautiful.^[2]
