Enteromius janssensi is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Enteromius from the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The fish's name is dedicated to the memory of entomologist (1906-1954), who participated in a large-scale faunal survey (1946-1949) of Upemba National Park in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the type specimen locality.[2]
