Herichthys labridens, the curve-bar cichlid, is a species of cichlid freshwater fish endemic to the Laguna Media Luna and headwaters of the Río Verde between 1,000–1,100 m (3,280–3,610 ft) above sea level in the state of San Luis Potosí, Mexico. Its range is a part of the upper Panuco River basin. It shares its distribution with the related Herichthys bartoni. Herichthys labridens can reach a maximum total length of 25 cm (10 in). It is endangered due to habitat loss, pollution and introduced species.
