Haplochromis adolphifrederici is a species of haplochromine cichlid which is endemic to Lake Kivu. It is an insectivorous, maternal mouthbrooder.[1] The specific name honours Duke Adolf Friedrich of Mecklenburg (1873-1969) the German explorer in Africa, a colonial politician and leader of a scientific research expedition in the region of the Central African Graben which traversed Africa from east to west, during which type was collected.[2]
