Barbus viviparus (bowstripe barb) is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Barbus. This species is native to Southern Africa.The males become golden in colour while the females remain silver-brown. Both sexes have a dark stripe running longitudinally along the flanks. The specific epithet viviparus ("viviparous") is in error; they lay eggs just like all other Barbus.
