''Geophagus'' is a genus of cichlids that mainly live in South America as far south as Uruguay, but a single species, ''G. crassilabris'' is from Panama. The genus is currently polyphyletic and in need of further taxonomic revision. Some geophagine cichlids previously included in this genus have been reallocated to ''Gymnogeophagus'' or ''Satanoperca''. ''Sensu stricto'' species include the true geophagines of very peaceful disposition usually with long fin extensions like the type species ''Geophagus altifrons''. ''Sensu lato'' geophagines include the much more robust and aggressive species of the ''Geophagus brasiliensis'' complex. ==Species== There are currently 28 recognized species in this genus: * ''Geophagus abalios'' López-Fernández & Taphorn, 2004 * ''Geophagus altifrons'' Heckel, 1840 * ''Geophagus argyrostictus'' S.
