Taxonomic Remarks
This species is placed in the genus Pundamilla Seehausen & Lippitsch, 1998 in Eschmeyer (CofF ver. Mar. 2011: Ref. 86697). We keep all the lacustrine and riverine "Haplochromine" species of the Lake Victoria catchment in the genus Haplochromis Hilgendorf, 1888 following Van Oijen et al. (1996: Ref. 12750), until a new complete taxonomic revision is published.

Espinas dorsales (total) : 15 - 16; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 8 - 10; Espinas anales: 3; Radios blandos anales: 8 - 9; Vértebra: 28 - 30.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Confined to rocky substrates. A cryptic species inhabiting moderately steep and steep shores with medium to large boulders, where it lives in large crevices between rocks, predominantly in shallow waters and in rock pools within emerged rocky reefs. Feeds mainly on benthic insect larvae, especially Ephemeroptera, but occasionally takes zooplankton, small fish and Bryozoa.
