Abstract

A detailed morphological study of the Haplochromis species from Lake Kivu led to the identification of 15 valid endemic species, several of which were new to science. All species were described in detail. Data concerning the ecology of the species were reported wherever possible. An annotated bibliography was provided for these species.
