Pike cichlid

Crenicichla albopunctata est une espèce de poissons d'eau douce de la famille des Cichlidae originaire de la région des Guyanes.

Pike cichlids are South American cichlid fish of the subfamily Cichlinae, all possessing an elongated body which drew comparison to pikes (Esox). The two earliest genera which were erected by Johann Jakob Heckel were Batrachops and Crenicichla. All subsequent species of elongated, small-scaled cichlid from South America were all placed within the genus Crenicichla (which also absorbed the genera Batrachops and Boggiania), but they eventually were split out in a 2023 taxonomic revision.
