Etymology: kamtambo: The name kamtambo is a noun in apposition and means 'blue' in Chichewa; it refers to the blue colouration of breeding males (Ref. 119465).

Краткое описание
определительные ключи | морфология | морфометрия
колючие лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 18 - 19; членистые (мягкие) лучи спинного плавника (общее число) : 8 - 10; колючие лучи анального плавника: 3; членистые (мягкие) лучи анального плавника: 7 - 8. Diagnosis: The steeply sloped vomer, a small mouth with retrognathic jaw and the presence of bicuspid teeth in the outer rows of the oral jaws and enlarged conical teeth at the back of the jaws place this species in Tropheops (Ref. 119465). Tropheops kamtambo, body depth 26.6-30.8% of standard length, cannot reliably be distinguished from other Tropheops on body depth, 23.6-34.5% (Ref. 119465). Breeding male T. kamtambo have a blue ground colouration, while those of T. biriwira are green/light blue; female T. kamtambo have a distinct black submarginal band on the dorsal fin, which is absent in females of T. kumwera and T. biriwira (Ref. 119465). It can be distinguished from other Tropheops, except T. kumwera and T. biriwira, by the presence of fewer tooth rows, 3-5 vs. 6-8, on both upper and lower jaws; the smaller eye, horizontal eye diameter 26.3-30.2% of head length and vertical eye diameter 24.0-29.7% of head length, distinguishes T. kamtambo from T. biriwira, 30.8-40.4% and 29.6-35.4% respectively; Tropheops kamtambo generally has a deeper head than T. kumwera, head depth 79.4-97.1% of head length vs. 70.2-84.5% in T. kumwera (Ref. 119465).
