Micralestes stormsi is a species of fish in the family Alestidae. It is found in Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, and Zambia. Its natural habitat is rivers.

The fish is named in honor of Lieut. Maurice Joseph Auguste Marie Raphael Storms (1875-1941), of the Belgian Army, who collected the type specimen and presented it to the Brussels Museum.
