Etymology: Astatotilapia: Greek, astato = unstable + Bechuana, African native thiape = fish (Ref. 45335);  tweddlei: Named for Mr. Denis Tweddle, Malawi Fisheries Research Unit, in recognition of his valuable contributions to the zoogeography of Malawi as well as his appreciation of the fact that the Lake Chilwa-Chiuta fauna contained a new haplochromine species (Ref. 49182).

Issue
This species is placed in the genus Haplochromis Hilgendorf, 1888 in Eschmeyer (CofF ver. Mar. 2011: Ref. 86697). We keep the lacustrine and riverine "Haplochromine" species in the genus Haplochromis only for the Lake Victoria catchment following Van Oijen et al. (1996: Ref. 12750), until a new complete taxonomic revision is published.
