There are currently two recognized species in this genus:[1]
A few other, possibly undescribed species are known.[2][3]
Pharyngochromis, along with Chetia, Sargochromis, Serranochromis and others, form a group sometimes known as the serranochromines or Serranochromini.[3][4][5] How many other genera that are included varies, with some defining the group relatively narrowly and others broadly.[2]
