Labeobarbus mirabilis


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