Etymology: Placidochromis: Latin, placidus = of peaceful or tranquile appearance + Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch (Ref. 45335); platyrhynchos: From the Greek "platus" = flat and "runchos" = snout, referring to the flattened snout (Ref. 55898).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
; Água doce bentopelágico; intervalo de profundidade 74 - 147 m (Ref. 55898). Tropical
Africa: endemic to Lake Malawi, present in Malawi and Tanzania (Ref. 55898).
Tamanho / Peso / Idade
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 10.0 cm SL macho/indeterminado; (Ref. 55898)
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 15 - 16; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 8 - 10; Espinhos anais: 3; Raios anais moles: 8 - 9. Diagnosis: differs from the other very elongate species (with body depth equal to or less than 31.0% SL) by its wide and horizontally flattened snout, greater body size (7.95-10.00cm versus 7.45 or less) and the absence of scales on the cheek; 6 vertical bars below the dorsal fin; snout 31.3-35.1 % head length; premaxillary pedicel 28.0-30.5 % head length; 3/2 or more inner tooth rows in oral jaws; lower jaw length 40.3-43.6% head length; head 36.3-38.3 %SL (Ref. 55898).
