The economically important African catfish genus Heterobranchus has been revised using biometrical and osteological features. From the 11 nominal species assigned to this genus, four are recognized as valid : H. bidorsalis, H.longifilis and H. boulengeri. A key to the species together with species descriptions and data on the distribution of each species are given, as is a discussion of their phylogeny. (Résumé d'auteur)
