Nandopsis is a small genus of cichlid fishes found in lakes, streams and rivers in Cuba and Hispaniola. Nandopsis are the only cichlids native to the Antilles.
Species

The genus currently contains three extant species, as well as one fossil species from the late Oligocene epoch. An additional species, N. vombergae is recognized by some, but considered a synonym of N. haitiensis by FishBase.[3]
