Etymology: Tylochromis: Greek, tylos = callus + Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch (Ref. 45335); intermedius: Named by Boulenger (1916) presumably in reference to its scale formula which he stated to be intermediate between that of T. jentinki and T. lateralis (Ref. 52346).
More on author: Boulenger.
Issue
Specific status has been questioned by Schultz (1942) and Daget (1954)(Ref. 52346).
