The Mnanzini nothobranch (Nothobranchius willerti) is a species of killifish in the family Nothobranchiidae.[2] It is endemic to Kenya where it occurs on the floodplains of the lower Tana River system where it is found in temporary waterbodies and connecting streams.[1] The specific name honours the German aquarist Manfred Willert who helped to collect the type and who donated it to Rudolf Hans Wildekamp[3] who describe the species in 1992.[4]
