Stiassny & Alter, 2015  

Teleogramma obamaorum est species piscium Africanorum familiae Cichlidarum, in Congo flumine endemicorum. Sexus, aliis Teleogrammatis speciebus dissimiles, variationibus coloris in pinna caudali carent. Singuli usque ad 75 millimetra longi extenduntur; plerumque gastropodis vescuntur. Species, anno 2015 descripta, ex Baraco Obama praesidis et Michaela Obama prima domina appellatur, quia conservationi scientificae progressuique in Africa et alibi favebant.[1] [2]
