Atopochilus vogti is a species of upside-down catfish endemic to Tanzania where it occurs in the Wami River. This species grows to a length of 12.6cm (05inches) TL.
The catfish is named in honor of monsignor Franz Xaver Vogt (1870-1943), who was a German Catholic Missionary in Bagamoyo, German East Africa, which is now Tanzania, who sent the type specimen to the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle in Paris.[1]
