black. Four specimens from Entebbe, which I refer to the same species, are dark

Lake Victoria, discovered by Mr. E. Degen. The above description is taken from 

 two specimens from Bunjako (5-14.11.05), two from Buganga (15.11.05), and four 

 from Entebbe (1.6.05). 



This species, called after the great African explorer whose name stands next to those 

 of Speke and Grant in the history of Lake Victoria, is allied to H. desfontainesi, but 

 well distinguished by the larger eye, the longer caudal peduncle, the truncate caudal 

 fin, and the more numerous gill-rakers.
