Known from the Ruzizi basin (Ref. 27628, 46152), Upper Akagera (Nyabarongo, Akanyaru basin, Lakes Bulera and Luhondo, lakes of Bugesera depression) and Middle Akagera (Lakes Ihema and Mihindi) (Ref. 27628). Introduction of tilapia and some Haplochromis may have been the reason for the decimation or extinction of the species in Lake Luhondo (Ref. 35818). A record of Barbus oligogrammus from Rwanda by Poll (1952) refers to B. neumayeri (Ref. 46152). Also Ref. 2801. |
