Etymology: Chromidotilapia: Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch + Bechuana, African native thiape = fish (Ref. 45335).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Οικολογία
; Γλυκού νερού βενθικό(ς). Tropical; 24°C - 28°C (Ref. 12468); 7°N - 6°N
Africa: endemic to the upper and middle Cavally River in Côte d'Ivoire (Ref. 53405).
Μέγεθος / Βάρος / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 7.7 cm SL αρσενικό/απροσδιόριστο; (Ref. 59154)
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 13 - 16; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 8 - 11; Εδρικές άκανθες: 3; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 6 - 7. Diagnosis: body depth 29.3-31.6% of standard length; interorbital space 17.6-19.0% of head length; 16 dorsal-fin spines; 28 or 29 lateral-line scales (Ref. 53405).
Ovophilic, paternal mouthbrooder (Ref. 12468, 52307). Both parents can take care of the young after hatching (Ref. 12468), but pair-bonding seems relatively weak (Ref. 52307). Maximum TL recorded is 8.65 cm (Ref. 5657).
