  Comment  
Type locality is indicated as 'Lake Tanganyika' (Ref. 97246), but the correctness of the locality-label is doubtful, as it is the only record of this species in Lake Tanganyika (Ref. 128642).
  Etymology of generic noun  
Greek, pelma, -atos = sole of the foot + Greek, chromis = a fish, perhaps a perch (Ref. 45335).
