Perret's snout-burrower or Perret's shovelnose frog (Hemisus perreti) is a species of frog in the family Hemisotidae. It is found in Gabon, western Republic of the Congo, the Cabinda enclave of Angola, and western Democratic Republic of the Congo.
The specific name, perreti, honours, a Swiss herpetologist who has specialized in African amphibians.
The species inhabits pristine lowland rainforest, secondary forest, forest patches in savanna, and forest along the savanna-forest transition zone. It is probably a common species, but its secretive and fossorial habits make it easy to overlook. Threats to this little known species are unknown.
