Snout short (Ref. 81260), pointed (Ref. 52307). Frontal profile slightly concave; large males sometimes develop a small hump on head; caudal fin rounded (Ref. 52307). Mouth small; lower jaw only slightly prognathous; lower lip fold just overlaps upper lip at corner of mouth; single row of small, evenly spaced unicuspid teeth in upper jaw, occasionally a few inner row teeth at symphysis; caudal peduncle always deeper than long; first pelvic ray longest in both sexes; some dorsal and anal fin rays elongated; caudal fin rounded in both sexes; chest scales smaller than body scales (Ref. 81260).Coloration: sexually inactive specimens: reddish brown to yellow, darker dorsally than chest and belly; lips, lower cheeks and opercle yellow; ventrum with a rosy flush; 1 relatively large, mid-lateral black spot, sometimes bordered with yellow on the posterior and anterior edges, but never fully encircled and ocellated; occasionally with a small, ovoid spot at base of caudal peduncle; bright blue iridophores on snout, cheek, opercle, and rarely also on outer edges of dorsal and caudal fins; body scales without blue iridophores but often (always in populations from Gabon) with blue margins around each scale; unpaired fins and pelvic fins yellowish to rosy; dorsal and upper part of caudal fin with thin red margin and thin blue submargins; anterior leading edge of pelvic fins red to violet; sometimes several black spots and/or 7-9 thin black bars descending down over flanks (Ref. 81260). Sexually active specimens (from the Congo): dorsum, unpaired fins and pelvic fins yellow to brownish-orange, the last with a red to violet anterior leading edge; dorsal and upper part of caudal fins with thin red margin and thin blue submargin; cheek and lower part of opercle yellow; venter bright red to violet (Ref. 81260). Sexually active specimens (from Gabon): head and body bright red, with a greenish to yellowish flush on dorsum; body scales often with blue margins; unpaired and pelvic fins red; dorsal and upper part of caudal fin with blue submargin; blue iridophores on head visible as in non-sexually active specimens (Ref. 81260). Juveniles < 12mm brownish with a prominent black mid-lateral band (Ref. 81260). Stiassny, M.L.J., A. Lamboj, D. De Weirdt and G.G. Teugels 2008 Cichlidae. p. 269-403. In M.L.J.
