"
cameronense is not the closest relative of the
elegans group. It was used as "outgroup" as could have been any other fish. However Based on DNA
Aphyosemion is divided in 2 large groups.
cameronense and
elegans are in the same group, together with
coeleste etc. The other group contains more coastal species."

There's a
list of cameronense populations
