Collected north of the Lokoundjé in a stream called the Fifinda in February 2001. This is in the Lokoundjé drainage. Collected under the bridge on the road between Douala & Kribi in the Stream Fifinda. This is actually a large stream/river which flows directly into the sea.
Upstream from the bridge the river forms an area 6 metres wide with a small waterfall filling it. As it drains this area the width decreases & rapids are formed. Numerous plants grow between the rocks - Crinum natans, Anubias sp., Bolbitis heudelotii. Downstream no plants grew. Base consisted of dark gravel. Water was brownish, GH virtually zero, pH 6·5, no temperature recorded.
The area was in full sun.
Sympatric species included Chromidotilapia aff.finleyi, Pelvicachromis taeniatus, E.infrafaciatus.

Also in this drainage P.similis is found & this is regarded as a border area between the 2 species.
