Etymology: Astatotilapia: Greek, astato = unstable + Bechuana, African native thiape = fish (Ref. 45335); tweddlei: Named for Mr. Denis Tweddle, Malawi Fisheries Research Unit, in recognition of his valuable contributions to the zoogeography of Malawi as well as his appreciation of the fact that the Lake Chilwa-Chiuta fauna contained a new haplochromine species (Ref. 49182).
Eponymy: Denis (d: 1949) and Sharon Tweddle are husband and wife and together were honoured in the name of the dwarf sanjika for their contributions (e. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
Issue
This species is placed in the genus Haplochromis Hilgendorf, 1888 in Eschmeyer (CofF ver. Mar. 2011: Ref. 86697). We keep the lacustrine and riverine "Haplochromine" species in the genus Haplochromis only for the Lake Victoria catchment following Van Oijen et al. (1996: Ref. 12750), until a new complete taxonomic revision is published.

Diagnosis: A species of Astatotilapia with a relatively slender body, its depth 32-37% of standard length; snout pointed; mouth large, oblique, lower jaw 37-45% of head length; caudal fin well rounded, slender, maximum width when extended 75-80% of its length; caudal peduncle longer than deep, its length/depth 1.10-1.44; chest scales relatively small, 12-14 in mid-ventral line between the row's origin on the isthmus and its termination between pelvic fins; colouration of breeding males distinctive with a well-marked series of maroon red spots along flanks, in parallel rows along scale rows except rows on and above upper lateral line (Ref. 49182).
Inhabits swampy lakes and slow streams (Ref. 4967). The maximum length of 110 cm given by Eccles (1992) [Ref. 4967] is apparently a mistake, maybe for 11.0 cm.
