Synodontis geledensis, known as the Geledi squeaker,[2] is a species of upside-down catfish that is native to Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia where it can be found in the Lorian Swamp, the Shebelle and Ewaso Ng'iro rivers.[2] It was first described by German zoologist Albert Günther in 1896, from specimens obtained near Geledi, on the Shebeli River in east Africa.[3] The species name geledensis comes from Geledi, Somalia, the location where the first specimens were first found.[4]
