Labeobarbus rhinoceros
The rhinofish (Labeobarbus rhinoceros) is a ray-finned fish species in the family Cyprinidae. Its taxonomic identity is not entirely clear. Some taxonomic authorities consider Labeobarbus mariae as the rhinofish, however Fishbase identifies the range of L. mariae as occurring in Guinea. Rhinofish appear to occur in Kenya, as the range seems not to be in dispute. Further clarification is needed on both species.
