Etymology: Etheostoma: Greek, etheo = to strain + Greek, stoma = mouth; Rafinesque said "various mouths", but Jordan and Evermann suggest the name might have been intended as "Heterostoma (Ref. 45335); kennicotti: Named after Robert Kennicott, the collector of type specimens (Ref. 10294).
Eponymy: Robert Kennicott (1835–1866) was an American naturalist who founded the Chicago Academy of Sciences, and who explored the American Northwest (1857–1859). [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Inhabit rocky pools of headwaters, creeks and small rivers (Ref. 5723, 10294). Adults feed on midge larvae, mayfly and stonefly nymphs, and crustaceans (Ref. 10294). Eggs are found clustered on underside of stone and guarded by males (Ref. 7043).
