Teramulus kieneri J. L. B. Smith , 1965 |
Teramulus kieneri, the Keiner's silverside or vily, is a species of
Tamatave.[3] It has since been found in other areas of the island, including the basin of the Nosivolo River and in the Bemarivo River.[1] Smith gave this species the specific name keineri to honour the French fisheries scientist, André Kiener, who assisted in the collection of the type in 1961, although it was initially reported as Atherinomorus duodecimalis.[4] It is the type species of the genus Teramulus.[5]
