Aphyosemion  fellmanni , Zee & Sonnenberg, 2018

A new Aphyosemion species from the Djoué River (Congo River Basin), Republic of the Congo (Teleostei: Cyprinodontiformes: Nothobranchiidae), with remarks on the type locality of Aphyosemion congicum (Ahl, 1924).

Abstract: Aphyosemion fellmanni,

new species, is described from specimens collected at two locations in the Djoué River basin, northwest of Brazzaville (Republic of the Congo), based on its unique colour pattern of very wide black margins of dorsal, caudal, and anal fins in combination with inter-radial red stripes ("flames") in the caudal fin of male. Within the genus Aphyosemion sensu stricto it shares black fin margins with A. rectogoense (south-east Gabon) and A. congicum (central Democratic Republic of the Congo). Preliminary genetic data do not suggest a closer relationship with any of these two species. Due to the geographically close occurrence of Aphyosemion fellmanni, new species, to A. congicum with which it shares the wide black fin margins we studied literature to get more information on origin of the types of the latter. The type locality of the latter species was indicated as "Congo", collected by Büttner. Based on a publication on the German Congo Expedition (1884-1886) the type locality could be restricted to the area of the expedition route and most probably to the lower Kwango (Cuango) River.

Abstract:

Aphyosemion teugelsi is described from specimens collected in a small creek in the upper Wamba River basin in the southwest of the Democratic Republic of the Congo not far from the Angolan border. This is∼400 km outside the known distribution area of the genus. It is distinguished from all other members of the genus Aphyosemion by the combination of broad black margins on all fins in males, a robust lower jaw, a more convex back, a large head with large eyes, a more anterior position of the dorsal fin relative to anal fin, and absence of extensions on the upper and lower caudal fin.
