Some similar groups like Heterixalus(which is from Madagascar) and Afrixalus are sometimes called "reed frogs" too. That is incorrect usage of the term in my opinion but given that "reed frogs" is a common name I suppose there is no definite right or wrong there.
Agreed, O.immaculatus is a Hyperoliidae with a very small range that includes the Ivory Coast. It is not refered to as a reed frog. But with the loose usage of the term 'reed frog' I suppose any argument here would be both right and wrong. I think the important matter is to identify it for the OP so he can care for it, regardless of what it's various names might be.
