The Yellow barb ( Enteromius manicensis) is a species of cyprinid fish in the genus Enteromius.
The yellow barb is a stout bodied, plain, silvery fish with a yellow tinge and large scales, there are 22-25 scales along the lateral line and 12 around the caudal peduncle. It has two pairs of barbs around the mouth. It reaches a length of 150 mm (5.9 in) SL.[3]
Yellow barbs are found in streams in the upper catchment of river basins, usually with rocky stream beds.[1]
The yellow barb is widely distributed in the Buzi River system headwaters. Possibly in the adjacent Pungwe River system. It is native to eastern Zimbabwe and western Mozambique.[1] Records of this species from the upper Zambezi, Kafue and Zambian Congo are unconfirmed.[2]
Populations of the yellow barb are threatened by poisoning of upper catchments by subsistence fishermen and by high sedimentation and mercury pollution caused by gold exploration.[1]
