This species was described in 1962. At the time of its discovery placed in Haplochromis then a "wastebin genus" for Haplochromini cichlids , it was subsequently moved to Ctenochromis, but differs somewhat from the fishes otherwise placed there.[3] Consequently, it has been proposed for separation in a monotypic genus Trematochromis, which was established in 1987 when "C." benthicola was mistakenly described a second time.[4]
