Etymology: Talamancaheros:Named for the Talamanca mountains of lower Central America, in combination with the old cichlid genus name Heros (meaning hero); to be understood as the hero of the Talamanca mountains. Eponymy: Dr Karl Theodor Ernst von Siebold (1804–1885) studied at Universität Berlin and Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, becoming a physician who practised in East Prussia (1831– 1834) at Heilsberg (Lidzbark Warmiński, Poland) and Königsberg (Kaliningrad [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Taxonomic Remarks Redescription by Bussing (1975), as Cichlasoma sieboldii. Reviewed by Bussing (1998: 372), as Theraps sieboldii, with key, diagnosis, geographical distribution, and figures. Molecular analysis suggests that T. sieboldii is not closely related to T. tuba (Martin & Bermingham, 1998), but the species is maintained in Tomocichla pending a more general revision of heroin cichlids.
