The Yellow Black Line Hap (Mylochromis melanonotus), known in the aquarium fish trade as Haplochromis yellow black line is a species of fish in the Cichlidae family. It is sometimes (but probably erroneously) separated in a monotypic genus Platygnathochromis.
It is found in Malawi, Mozambique, and Tanzania. Its natural habitat is freshwater lakes.

“Tell me how many beads there are
In a silver chain
Of evening rain,
Unravelled from the tumbling main,
And threading the eye of a yellow star:—
So many times do I love again.”
—Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)
“An oblong puddle inset in the coarse asphalt; like a fancy footprint filled to the brim with quicksilver; like a spatulate hole through which you can see the nether sky.

—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“The man of business ... goes on Sunday to the church with the regularity of the village blacksmith, there to renounce and abjure before his God the line of conduct which he intends to pursue with all his might during the following week.”

“My fortune somewhat resembled that of a person who should entertain an idea of committing suicide, and, altogether beyond his hopes, meet with the good hap to be murdered.”
