Haplochromis orthostoma is a species of cichlid fish that is endemic to the Lake Kyoga system in Uganda, where only known from Lake Bisina (a medium-sized lake to the east of Lake Kyoga itself)[1] and Lake Nawampassa (a small lake southeast of Lake Kyoga itself and only separated by a thin swamp).[2] Its continued survival in Lake Bisina is questionable as it has not been recorded in recent surveys,[3] but it still survives in Lake Nawampassa.[2] This piscivorous species is peaceful among similar-sized or larger fish, but will rapidly swallow smaller fish with its very large mouth.[2] The largest officially measured specimen was Template:Cvt in standard length,[1] although it has been known to reach about Template:Cvt in total length.[2]
