The Hispaniola pupfish (Cyprinodon bondi) is a fish
Etang Saumâtre and Lake Enriquillo on the island of Hispaniola, in both Haiti and the Dominican Republic
.
Taxonomic history
type locality of the fish is Étang Saumâtre, Haiti. Myers named this species after R. M. Bond, who collected the specimens Myers used for his description.[2]
Description
The adults'
standard length is up to 62 mm (2.4 in).[3]
Distribution
The fish's holotype and
Lago Enriquillo had been identified as being C. bondi, but Smith argues that this identification was mistaken.[3]
