Abstract
A new species of an annual killifish, Nothobranchius boklundi, is described based on specimens collected from ephemeral bodies of water in the Luangwa River basin, eastern Zambia. The new species belongs to the Nothobranchius brieni species-group and is distinguished from the other members by different male and female coloration and morphological characters.
