The blunt-jawed elephantnose, Gnathonemus tamandua, is an elephantfish in the genus Gnathonemus. Other names in English include worm-jawed mormyrid. It is found in murky waters in West Africa. The fish is brown or black with a long elephant-like snout and the mouth is located near the end of this probiscis. Its diet consist of worms, small fish, and insects.

In captivity are fairly hard to take care for because they need a narrow range of water temperatures, a large tank, and special food.
