belongs to the chromidotilapiine lineage. This assemblage currently comprises seven genera united by the possession of several derived anatomical features, including the presence of a visor-like pad on the roof of the buccopharynx just anterior to the upper pharyngeal bones, tuberculate gill-rakers on the outer row of the first gill arch, and the absence of microbranchiospines on the second to fourth gill arches (Greenwood 1987; Stiassny 1991).

One was collected in the vicinity of Belinga (Numrich &amp; Wunderlich, 1988), and the second from Makokou (Lamboj, 1988). Aquarists raised both species and information on behaviour and reproductive biology has since appeared in the aquarium hobbyist literature (e.g., Lamboj 1999a, Linke &amp; Staeck 2002) under the names

. Between 1995 and 2002, as part of an ongoing effort to document the ichthyofauna of the Lower Guinean ichthyofaunal province (Cameroon, Rio Muni, Gabon and Congo-Brazzaville), numerous additional collections were made throughout the region, and examination of these as well as historical collections have led to a better understanding of the distribution of these two undescribed species. Additionally, recent collections in the region of Makokou, and historical material from a nearby locality, have revealed the presence there of a third undescribed
