Photo c: Chindongo heteropictus (previously known under the names Maylandia heteropicta, Pseudotropheus heteropictus, and P. "newsi," photographed underwater at Chisumulu Island; Konings (1995c: 154) identifies this creature as P. heteropictus [now C. heteropictus].
Photo g: Chindongo heteropictus according to Ribbink et al. (1983) (as P. heteropictus),
photographed underwater at Thumbi West Island, Malawi.
Konings (1995c: 154), apparently in reference to this photograph, remarks
that the scientific name heteropictus "...has erroneously been
applied to a large species from Thumbi West Island, Ps. sp. 'black
dorsal heteropictus'...." Thus, if Konings is correct, only the mbuna in
photo c is actually C. heteropictus. Photos from Plates 9c
and 1g, respectively, of Ribbink et al., 1983;
