Haplochromis is the largest genus of fish in the family Cichlidae, many of which are endemic to Lake Victoria in East Africa. Chordates ( Phylum Chordata) are a group of Animals that includes the Vertebrates together with several closely related Invertebrates The Actinopterygii (the plural form of Actinopterygius) comprise the class of the ray-finned fishes. The Perciformes, also called the Percomorphi or Acanthopteri, include about 40% of all bony Fish and are the largest order of vertebrates. Cichlids (ˈsɪklɪd are Fish from the family Cichlidae in the order Perciformes. The Pseudocrenilabrinae is a Subfamily in the cichlid family of fishes to which according to the last studies of Sparks & Smith (2004 belong all the African A genus (plural genera from Γένος Latin genus "descent family type gender" is a low-level Taxonomic In Biological classification, family ( Latin Cichlids (ˈsɪklɪd are Fish from the family Cichlidae in the order Perciformes. Endemism is the Ecological state of being unique to a place Endemic species are not naturally found elsewhere Lake Victoria or Victoria Nyanza (also known as Ukerewe and Nalubaale) is one of the Great Lakes of Africa. East Africa is the Easternmost Region of the African Continent. [2] The introduction of Nile perch to Lake Victoria from 1954, lead to the extinction of approximately 200 Haplochromis species, and many others remain either threatened or critically endangered. The Nile perch ( Lates niloticus) is a Species of Freshwater Fish in family Latidae of order Perciformes In Biology and Ecology, extinction is the cessation of existence of a Species or group of taxa. An endangered species is a population of an organism which is at risk of becoming Extinct because it is either few in numbers or threatened by changing environmental or predation [3] Some species, including a number of haplochromine cichlids from Lake Tanganyika and Lake Malawi, have been moved from Haplochromis to other cichlid genera including: Astatilapia, Pseudocrenilabrus and Pundamilia. The haplochromine cichlids, Subfamily Haplochrominae are a grouping of genera including Haplochromis plus a number of closely related genera Lake Tanganyika is a large Lake in central Africa (3° 20' to 8° 48' South and from 29° 5' to 31° 15' East Lake Malawi (also known as Lake Nyasa, Lake Nyassa, Lake Niassa, and Lago Niassa in Mozambique) is the most southerly Lake Pseudocrenilabrus is a small Genus of Mouthbrooding Cichlid species endemic to Riverine Habitats in East Africa UserPolbot. --> Pundamilia is a genus of Fish in the Cichlidae family [3]

Species

As of 2007 there are 213 described species. [2]
