Species of fish


Labeobarbus mirabilis is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Labeobarbus.[2] Its type locality is the Ituri River, near Mawambi, Ituri Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo.[3][4] It has not been found in other locations.[5] This species was initially placed in the genus Barbus, but is now considered to be a member of Labeobarbus.[6][4] Some experts have raised the possibility that, with more research, L. mirabilis might become classified as a junior synonym of L. somereni.[7][4]
