Species of fish From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Haplochromis bartoni was a species of cichlid endemic to Lake Victoria. This species can reach a length of 19.5 centimetres (7.7 in) SL.[2] It has not been recorded in recent surveys but as the whole of Lake Victoria has not been surveyed for this species the IUCN classify it as Data Deficient.[1] This species was said by Greenwood to bear some resemblance to Haplochromis worthingtoni so he named this species after E. Barton Worthington (1905-2001) as well.[3]
