Cyathopharynx schoutedeni (Poll, 1942) Cardiopharynx schoutedeni is a species of cichlid endemic to Lake Tanganyika in East Africa.

It is found in Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, and Zambia.

This semi-pelagic fish prefers habitats over sandy bottoms where it feeds on aquatic microorganisms.

It can reach a length of 15 centimetres (5.9 in) TL.

[2] The specific name honours the Belgian zoologist Henri Schouteden (1881-1972) who was director of Musée Royal de l’Afrique Centrale in Tervuren and who was one of the first zoologists to collect this species.
