Etymology: kenwoodi: Named after the discoverer's father, Kenwood Perkins, in recognition to the support provided to his son while studying species diversity and conservation in Peru.
Eponymy: Kenwood Perkins was the father of Brian Perkins, an aquarist who collected the holotype. The fish was named in Kenwood’s memory for support he provided to his son while Brian was studying in Peru. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 9 - 10; Raggi anali molli: 17. The males of this species are distinguished from its congeners by having an elliptical caudal fin with brown oblique stripes, and a broad yellow stripe on the ventral portion that lacks a black marginal stripe; further differs with flank light blue with oblique red dots, with dots on pectoral fin, no black humeral blotch and distal black stripe on anal fin (Ref. 130458).
All specimens were collected from a single small, shallow (about 5-8 cm deep) temporary pool, with leaf and mud substratum, and it is adjacent to and subject to seasonal inundation by a small stream. The water was dark brown with temperature approximately 24°C and with a pH of 6.8. Other fishes present were Apistogramma rubrolineata and Hoplosternum thoracatum (Ref. 130458).
