La introducción de la perca del Nilo en el lago Victoria en 1954 ha llevado a la extinción de aproximadamente 200 especies de Haplochromis, y algunas otras han sido clasificadas como críticamente amenazadas. Algunas especies, incluyendo especies del género Haplochromis del lago Tanganyika y el lago Malawi, han sido movidas de Haplochromis a otros géneros de cíclidos, incluyendo Astatotilapia, Pseudocrenilabrus y Pundamilia.
Para el 2016 ya había descritas unas 229 especies Haplochromis.[1]
