Adrianichthys roseni
Adrianichthys roseni is a species of ricefish, a member of the family Adrianichthyidae which is endemic to Lake Poso on Sulawesi.[3] Since the holotype was collected in 1978 there have been no reports of this species and if it still exists then it has a very low population. The IUCN categorise it as Critically Endangered (Possibly Extinct).[1] The specific name honours Donn E. Rosen (1929-1986) of the American Museum of Natural History.[4]
