description: Brycinus rhodopleura (Boulenger, 1906)
Alestes rhodopleura Boulenger, 1906a:547, Pl. 30 (fig. 3). Type locality: Niamkolo, Mtondwe Bay, and Lofu, Lake Tanganyika. [Zambia]. Syntypes: BMNH 1898.9.9.79 (1) Tanganyika; BMNH 1906.9.8.37 (1) Niamkolo; BMNH 1906.9.8.38 (1) Mtondwe Bay; BMNH 1906.9.8.39 (1) Lofu. [Boulenger (1909a) mentioned two specimens from Lofu as types. There is however only one specimen known from that locality in the BMNH fish collection (BMNH 1906.9.8.39). It is known that Boulenger divided type material between BMNH and RMCA, at least for some species, but no specimens from “Lofu” (or “Luvu”) of A. rhodopleura could be found in the RMCA fish collection].
Distribution: 542 (Poll, 1953; Paugy, 1986).
