Nothobranchiidae (African rivulines)
Etymology: Fenerbahce: The Turkish word 'Fenerbahçe' can have the meaning of garden lantern from 'fener' (lantern) and bahçe (garden), from which the name of a district in Istanbul, and the name of a football club might be derived (Ref. 79517).
Issue
According to Sonenberg & van der Zee (2008) [Ref. 79517] Fenerbahce is the valid genus, because Adamas is preoccupied.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
; acqua dolce benthopelagico; pH range: 5.8 - 7.2; non migratori. Tropical; 22°C - 24°C (Ref. 2060)
Africa: Alima and Likouala Rivers in Republic of Congo, as well as in Pool Malebo (Ref. 87349). Reports from other localities (eg Ruki, middle Congo near Kisangani or Lualaba River; Ref. 27139) are probably misidentifications (Ref. 87349).
