In human culture
The fish is named in honor of Jean-Pierre Marquet, a technical assistant of the BTC (Belgian Technical Cooperation) project PRODEPAAK (Projet de Développement de la Pêche Artisanale et de l’Aquaculture au Katanga, 2008–2013), for his efforts in fish collecting, and who provided logistical support for the Katanga Expedition 2012, during which the holotype specimen was collected.
