Nothobranchius neumanni

Nothobranchius neumanni is a species of killifish in the family Nothobranchiidae.^[2] It is endemic to Tanzania. It occurs in both perennial and seasonal wetlands including rivers, lakes and ponds where it most likely feeds on planktonic crustaceans.^[1] This species was described as Fundulus neumanni by Franz Hilgendorf in 1905.^[3] The specific name honours Hilgendorf's companion on some of his expeditions to Africa, the German ornithologist Oscar Neumann (1867-1946).^[4]
