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.
