Pseudobagrus brevianalis is a species of bagrid catfish endemic to Taiwan. First collected from Sun Moon Lake, it is found in central and northern Taiwan, west of the Central Mountain Range. Based on lack of morphological and genetic differences, it has been proposed that Pseudobagrus taiwanensis is a junior synonym of Pseudobagrus brevianalis, but this has not been followed by online databases.
The river sardine (Engraulicypris brevianalis or Mesobola brevianalis is an African species of freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae.
