Hemitilapia oxyrhynchus
A subadult individual of Hemitilapia oxyrhynchus. When a little larger, this fish would have shown the adult melanic (black) markings characteristic of the genus Hemitilapia and its relatives. The two dark spots on the flanks, which do not yet extend to the top of the fish's back, will "fill in" above, forming specialized spots that I call saddles. The elongate, straight or (in adults) slightly concave snout is a distinctive anatomical feature of H. oxyrhynchus. [eng] |
