Etymology: Labeotropheus: Latin, labeo = one who has large lips + Greek, tropaion = defeat, a memorial of a fighting war, trophy; because of their specialized teeth were such an obvious feeding adaptation (Ref. 45335); simoneae: This species is named in honour of Simone Josephine Pauers, daughter of author Michael J. Pauers, whose rosy cheeks reminds him of the bright orange opercula of the males of this species (Ref. 111073).
