Yunnanilus nigromaculatus

Yunnanilus nigromaculatus is a species of stone loach endemic to the Dianchi Lake basin (which includes the small Yangling Lake) in China,[2][1] but has apparently been extirpated from Dianchi Lake itself due to heavy pollution.[1] It was formerly placed in the genus Eonemachilus.[3]
