Eonemachilus obtusirostris is a species of ray-finned fish, a stone loach in the genus Eonemachilus. Its type locality is the West Dragon Spring, which flows into Fuxian Lake in Chengjiang County, Yunnan.[3] In the past this species was classified in the genus Yunnanilus, although it was thought that it may have been in Heminoemacheilus rather than Yunnanilus.[4] The specific name is a compound of the Latin rostrum meaning a "beak" and obtusus meaning "blunt", this refers to the species' short snout.[5]
