Etymology: Auchenoglanis: Greek, auchen = neck + Greek, glanis = a fish that can eat the bait without touching the hook; a cat fish (Ref. 45335).
More on author: Valenciennes.
Taxonomic Remarks
The species Auchenoglanis acuticeps Pappenheim, 1914 and Auchenoglanis occidentalis tchadensis Pellegrin, 1909 are considered valid in Eschmeyer (CofF ver. Jul. 2011: Ref. 87661). We postpone this change until a more complete assessment is published.

طول در اولین بلوغ / اندازه / وزن / سن
بلوغ: Lm ?, range 39 - ? cm
Max length : 70.0 cm SL جنس نر / بدون خواص جنسي; (Ref. 4967)
خارهاي باله پشتي (کل) : 2; شعاع نرم باله پشتي (کل) : 7 - 8; خارهاي باله مخرجي: 3 - 4; شعاع نرم باله مخرجي: 6 - 8. Diagnosis: head width usually less than 2/3 of standard length (Ref. 57126). Snout long and pointed, generally greater than half the head length in adults (Ref. 28714), length more than 0.9 times the head width in adults (less in juveniles) (Ref. 57126). Hind margin of adipose fin rounded; premaxillary dentition forming (in adults) two close-set oval plates (Ref. 57126). Maxillary barbel often blackish and only rarely reaching to anterior margin of opercula (Ref. 57126), usually not reaching beyond eye and much shorter than outer mandibular barbel (Ref. 28714, 81642). 8-12 (usually 10 or 11) gill rakers on lower limb of first gill arch; palatine membrane with multiple invaginations, 1-4 of them forming longer lobes; dorsal margin of cleithral process ending in a point (visible only in adults)(Ref. 57126).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: circular.
Inhabits lakes and large rivers (Ref. 4967). Has never been observed in large quantities in forested areas (Ref. 57126). Occurs in shallow water with muddy bottom. Bottom feeder, omnivore, feeds on plankton, seeds, detritus (Ref. 13868), mollusks (Ref. 13868, 28714), mud, debris (Ref. 28714), insect larvae (Ref. 6868, 28714), worms and small Crustacea (Ref. 6868). Oviparous (Ref. 205). Nested eggs are guarded by the male parent (Ref. 47642). Furthermore, the male plays host to eggs and young of Dinotopterus cunningtoni which takes advantage of the already prepared nest and feed on the host brood (Ref. 49546). An example of interspecific brood care.
