Polypterus senegalus
is perhaps the most common species found, and though a somber tannish
brown, is still a handsome animal. Aptly called the Senegal or Cuvier's
Bichir after it's scientific describer, this fish is used as food today
as it was in the Pharaohs' times. Aquarium pix of a xanthistic type of the
species. |
