Nandopsis is a small genus of cichlid fishes found in lakes, streams and rivers in Cuba and Hispaniola. Nandopsis are the only cichlids native to the Antilles.
Species[edit]
The genus currently contains three extant species, as well as one fossil species from the late Oligocene epoch. An additional species, N. vombergae is recognized by some, but considered a synonym of N. haitiensis by FishBase.[3]
