Archocentrus

Archocentrus is a genus of cichlid fishes from Central America. It formerly included 7 of the species now included in the genus Cryptoheros, as well as the convict cichlid, now included in the genus Amatitlania.[1][2][3] The Rainbow Cichlid, Archocentrus multispinosus, was temporarily included in the genus Archocentrus but is now back in its original genus Herotilapia.[4]
