This species lends its name to the 'G.' steindachneri, an assemblage of closely-related species with unresolved generic placement which currently also includes 'G.' crassilabris and 'G.' pellegrini. It exists in a number of colour forms which vary with locality, some of which may eventually be described as separate taxa. Some of these may appear on trade lists under the synonym Geophagus hondae.
