Limia mandibularis, a new livebearing fish of the family Poeciliidae is described from Lake Miragoane in southwestern Haiti on Hispaniola. The new species differs from all other species in the genus Limia by the presence of a well-developed lower jaw, the absence of preorbital and preopercular pores, and preorbital and preopercular canals forming an open groove each. The description of this new Limia species from Lake Miragoane confirms this lake as an important center of endemism for the genus with a total of nine described species so far.
利米亚马氏鱼是丽鱼科一种新的卵胎生鱼类，发现于伊斯帕尼奥拉岛海地西南部的米拉戈阿内湖。该新物种与利米亚属的所有其他物种不同，其下颌发达，眶前孔和眶前管不存在，眶前管和眶前管各形成一条开放的沟。来自米拉戈阿内湖的这种新利米亚物种的描述证实了该湖是该属一个重要的特有中心，迄今为止共有9个已描述的物种。
