Etymology: Rubricatochromis: Name from rubricatus, Latin for red coloured, refers to the bright red colouration on body of most species when in dominance or broodcare; and chromis, a common ending for African cichlid fishes (Ref. 128620); paynei: This species is named in honor of Dr. Ian A. Payne, in recognition of his interest in the systematics and ecology of hemichromid cichlids in Sierra Leone (Ref. 43352).
Eponymy: Ian A Payne, who collected the catfish holotype, was a fisheries biologist at the Zoology Department, Fourah Bay College University of Sierra Leone, Freetown, Sierra Leone (1975) and at Department of Biological Sciences, Faculty of Applied Science, [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
সনাক্তকারী নির্দেশক | বহিঃ অঙ্গ সংস্থান | মরফোমেট্রিক্স
পৃষ্ঠীয় কাঁটা (মোট ) : 13 - 15; পৃষ্ঠীয় নরম পাখনা দন্ড (মোট ) : 10 - 11; পায়ূ কাঁটা : 3; পায়ূর নরম পাখনা্তুন্ড: 7 - 8. Diagnosis: A small Hemichromis characterized by a small mouth and moderately protractile premaxilla, an extensive, stochastically distributed pattern of blue spangling on the head and flanks, a round black lateral spot located above the midlateral line, a rather short snout, 7.8-10.8% of standard length, moderately wide interorbital distance, 9.6-11.8% of standard length, deep caudal peduncle, 17.6-19.8% of standard length, and a strongly sagittiform, heavily dentigerous lower pharyngeal bone with 20-24 teeth along its posterior margin; lower pharyngeal dentition crested, with a major cusp and a rounded shoulder with two or three distinct serrations evident, both the postero-laterals and medians bulbous and enlarged (Ref. 43352).
Hemichromis paynei is found mainly in coastal areas (Ref. 52307). All specimens referred to as Hemichromis paynei in aquarist publications before 2004 do not actually belong to this species; they have definitely been misidentified (Ref. 52307).
