Aequidens
''Aequidens'' is a genus of fish in the family Cichlidae found in South America. Formerly a wastebasket genus, as presently defined ''Aequidens'' is largely restricted to the Amazon Basin, Orinoco Basin and river basins in The Guianas. The only exceptions are ''A. plagiozonatus'' which also occurs in the Paraná Basin, and ''A. tetramerus'' which also occurs in the Parnaíba River. Taxonomy Many species formerly placed in this genus have been reallocated to other genera such as ''Andinoacara'', ''Bujurquina'', '' Cleithracara'', ''Krobia'', ''Laetacara'', '' Rondonacara'' and ''Tahuantinsuyoa''.Ottoni, F.P. & Mattos, J.L.O.

Cichlidae
Cichlids are fish from the family Cichlidae in the order Cichliformes. Cichlids were traditionally classed in a suborder, the Labroidei, along with the wrasses ( Labridae), in the order Perciformes, but molecular studies have contradicted this grouping. The closest living relative of cichlids is probably the convict blenny, and both families are classified in the 5th edition of ''Fishes of the World'' as the two families in the Cichliformes, part of the subseries Ovalentaria. This family is both large and diverse. At least 1,650 species have been scientifically described, making it one of the largest vertebrate families. New species are discovered annually, and many species remain undescribed. The actual number of species is therefore unknown, with estimates varying between 2,000 and 3,000. Many cichlids, particularly tilapia, are important food fishes, while others, such as the ''Cichla'' species, are valued game fish. The family also includes many popular freshwater aquar ...

Krobia (genus)
''Krobia'' is a genus of cichlid fish native to freshwater habitats in South America, with three species found in the Guianas and a single in the Xingu River basin.Steele, S.E., Liverpool, E. & López-Fernández, H. (2013): ''Krobia petitella'', a new species of cichlid fish from the Berbice River in Guyana (Teleostei: Cichlidae). ''Zootaxa, 3693 (2): 152–162.'' They are typically found in small streams or creeks with little current and they feed on small invertebrates. They reach up to in standard length. They were formerly included in ''Aequidens''. Species There are currently four recognized species in this genus: * '' Krobia guianensis'' (Regan, 1905) (Krobia) * '' Krobia itanyi'' ( Puyo, 1943) (Dolphin cichlid) * '' Krobia petitella'' Steele, Liverpool Liverpool is a city and metropolitan borough in Merseyside, England.

Andinoacara
''Andinoacara'' is a genus of fish in the family Cichlidae. The genus was described in 2009.Musilova, Rican and Novak, 2009''Phylogeny of the Neotropical cichlid fish tribe Cichlasomatini (Teleostei: Cichlidae) based on morphological and molecular data, with the description of a new genus''.Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 47 Issue 3, Pages 209 - 304 (August 2009) Before this the members of ''Andinoacara'' were placed in the "catch-all" genus ''Aequidens'' although they are not closely related to the other members of this genus. The genus ''Andinoacara'' is restricted to freshwater habitats in northwestern South America (Trinidad and the Orinoco Basin west to the Pacific coast of South America as far south as Peru) and southern Central America (Costa Rica and Panama). There are no members of the genus in the Amazon Basin. Species There are currently eight recognized species in this genus:Eschmeyer, W.N., & R. Fricke, eds. (2013). Catalog of Fishe ...
