Phrynobatrachus njiomock is a species of frogs in the family Phrynobatrachidae.[1][3][4] It is endemic to Cameroon and is only known from Mount Oku where it occurs near Lake Oku.[1][3] It has not been observed after 2010 and might already be extinct.[1] The specific name njiomock means "eleventh" in Oku language and refers to the name "Phrynobatrachus sp. 11" that Jean-Louis Amiet used in 1978 to refer to a specimen collected near Lake Oku.[2] Common name Lake Oku puddle frog has been proposed for this species.[1][3][4]
