Species List

Aphyosemion abacinum




Fundulus albolineatus (ex)

Extinct. Not recorded in over a century. Its only known habitat has seen its banks lined with cement, been pumped dry on multiple occasions and what little segregated pools were reserved were stocked with non-native carp and goldfish.

Aplocheilus armatus


The true A. panchax only occurs in Bengal and the Ganges drainage.

There is another form from the Adamans Islands, (A. adamanticus).

All other forms from India to Borneo to Indonesia are A. armatus.


Nothobranchius annectens



Aplocheilus andamanicus

"In this study, based on morphological and molecular evidence, we demonstrate that A. andamanicus is indeed a distinct and valid species, which can easily be diagnosed from the widespread A. panchax."


Nothobranchius angelae



Rivulus anitae


Pachypanchax arnoulti



Epiplatys annulatus


The color of dorsal fin changes from country to country - it's red in the in Sierra Leone, blue in Liberia and yellow in Guinea.



Hypsolebias antenori



Austrolebias apaii




Rivulus (Melanorivulus) apiamici

Rivulus apiamici


Trigonectes aplocheiloides



Tellia apoda



Megupsilon aporus


Became extinct in the wild in the late 1980s and hangs by a thread in the hobby - it must eat every couple of hours and likes it unusually warm for a killifish.

As of 2020 they are allegedly extinct and no more remain in the hobby; they became extinct in nature in the mid 1980s.


Moema apurinan


Austrolebias arachan



Prorivulus auriferus



Fundulus auroguttatus


Hypsolebias auratus

Hypsolebias auratus, on an expedition organized by Cepta/ICMBIO, sponsored by WWF, we rediscovered the H Biotope. avalanche.
Once again it's changed. It is the fourth visit to the biotope, since 1996, and in all of them there has been a change in the road, with the construction of slopes so that the road does not flood changing, burying and endangering the biotope. In each and every time the well recovered and the species did not go extinct. But be alert, because it's the only known locality of this species.
