Name
Kronoheros Říčan & Piálek, 2016
Type species: Cichlasoma umbriferum Meek & Hildebrand, 1913
Etymology: Named after Kronos (Greek: Κρόνος, krónos), the leader of the first generation of Titans (the descendants of Uranus and Gaia) of Greek mythology that preceded the Olympian deities, in combination with the old cichlid genus name Heros (meaning hero). Gender: masculine. The name is given after the leader of the Titans because Kronoheros attains the largest body size among Neotropical cichlids.
