Etymology: Coelotilapia: "The genus name Coelotilapia Mayland, 1995 was introduced in a popular aquarium book, but it is not available, because it was treated as a questionable new genus, but was described as a generic name under Tilapia and not used in the combination Coelotilapia joka. The name was chosen to refer to the cave-breeding habit, but Mayland refers to the Latin word coelestis, which mean celestial. Very likely he thought of the Greek word ‘koiloma’, which means cavity.".

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.

50 = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01514 (0.00700 - 0.03275), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
устойчивость к внешним воздействиям (Ref.
120179): высокий, минимальное время удвоения популяции до 15 месяцев (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
