Chai, A. Wubie, R.A. Collins and A. Getahun0 A new species within the <i>Enteromius kerstenii</i> complex (Actinopterygii, Cyprinidae, Smiliogastrinae) from south-western Ethiopia.

The altitude of the sampling sites ranged from 1,122 m a.s.l. (5°53’31’’N, 37°29’44’’E) to 1,185 m a.s.l. (6°3’35’’N, 37°36’2’’E). Stomach contents examined (N = 3) contained unidentifiable fine organic detritus, remains of aquatic (Chironomidae, Ephemeroptera) and terrestrial (Formicidae) arthropods, and some non-organic material (sand grains). In the sampling sites, this species was found sympatric with Enteromius cf. stigmatopygus (Ref. 132497). Englmaier, G.K., M. Chai, A. Wubie, R.A. Collins and A.
