Can anyone think of an african cichlid with the first part of the scientific name 'micro'

we had 6 new african cichlids arrive on this weeks delivery and i didn't think to note down the name but would now like to do some research into them,
They're a purply/blue colour and are showing signs that yellow colouration is still to come through, the name was something along the lines of yellow microphalmus ???

any help would be appreciated, Thanks
 
Do oyu have pic's? I cant think of anything starting with Micro.

no sorry didn't think i'd need a pic as i already had the id, which i didn't write down because i thought i'd remember it, Lol
If i get the id i can research the fish now, if not its not a problem as i can just get the id next time i'm at work
 
it wasn't a macrophalmus by any chance? Pseudotropheus macrophalmus
 
Thanks, no it definitely not a Microgeophagus, and doesn't match the Microdontochromis species,
I wouldn't put it past the name they've sent on the delivery note being wrong
