Etymology: Neolamprologus: Greek, neos = new + Greek,lampros = torch + Greek, lagos = hare (Ref. 45335); chitamwebwai: Named after Deonatus Chitamwebwa, in gratitude for his excellent hospitality and assistance and because of his elongated shape and small body depth to length ratio that makes him stand out as it does with this species (Ref. 74422).

Diagnosis: body depth 24.9–28.9% SL; cheek depth 16.7–24.1% HL; predorsal fin length 29.4–33.3% SL; caudal peduncle depth 11.2–12.8% SL; 8 upper and 6 lower canines; 6–9 gill rakers; cephalic pits present; 8-10 dorsal soft rays; 13 pectoral fin rays; 33–35 scales in longitudinal series; no scales on paired fins; no ctenoid scales on dorsal and anal fins; 2 scales between upper and lower lateral lines; 16 scales around caudal peduncle; markings on the dorsal and caudal fins not very pronounced; no markings on operculum; no conspicuous spots on scales; no bars on body; juveniles drab grey-brown (Ref. 74422).
Highly stenotopic, restricted to rocky habitat; occurs in exposed parts of rocky shores, with large boulders (1-2 m in diameter) on a steep slope, with some sand in between the stones, and no bivalve shell accumulations or other rubble present; presence of sand is mandatory; water with high visibility and low sedimentation rates; most common at depth between 10 and 20 m; strong site fidelity and small home range; ingests sediment and spits it out through mouth (Ref. 74422).

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref.
120179): hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
