Original description as Parananochromis moutingae:

ZooBank:7FEE0893-7F14-4497-A8C1-72ED4C321973.

  • Ibala Zamba, Armel & Tobit L.D. Liyandja, Anton Lamboj, Jos Snoeks, Emmanuel Vreven. 2022. "Parananochromis moutingae (Teleostei: Cichlidae): a new species from Central Africa, and the first record of the genus in the Congo River basin". Ichthyological Explorations of Freshwaters. (IEF-1074):1-14. DOI: 10.23788/IEF-1074 (crc12094) (abstract)

Conservation: Parananochromis moutingae is not evaluated by the international union for the conservation of nature in the iucn red list of threatened species. The species has not been collected in the Lefini River since its original discovery in 2008, probably as a consequence of the 2009 construction of the Imboulou Hydroelectric Dam, just upstream of the type locality (Ibala Zamba et al., 2022:8).
