Bostrychus microphthalmus is a species of fish from the family Butidae.[1][2][3] It is endemic to Maros karst in southern Sulawesi, Indonesia. It was the first documented cave-dwelling fish in Sulawesi,[1] but since then the brotula Diancistrus typhlops has been described from nearby Muna Island,[4][5] and an additional apparently undescribed eleotrid is known from Sulawesi's Maros karst.[6]

The specific name of B. microphthalmus refers to the small eyes of this fish.[2]
