Pardiglanis tarabinii, the Somalian giant catfish, is a species of claroteid catfish native to Kenya and Somalia.

[2] This species has uncertain taxonomic status.

[2][3] However, some sources have considered this genus to be a junior synonym of Clarotes.

[4] It lives in mud at bottom of rivers.

It can reach a length of 75 cm (29.5 inches) SL, but is not of any importance in local fisheries.
