No, it's not a valid name. Could be everything. Without pictures, it's impossible to identify, what fish are behind this name.
But the name A. sp. "Diamante" (=Diamond) was used for A. eremnopyge a while ago.

I have just seen this name on some Apisto's in Swindon and they are/or look very much like Pebas Species. They were quite young, but you could tell they had a double spot on the caudal peduncle. When asking the fishshop guys it appears these ones came in from Singapore.
Hopefully if you look up the Cichlid Atlas 2 Book you should be able to see it on page 1001.
Good Luck.

I agree with Rolo the two imports that bring us (Argentina) A. eremnopyge, they were labelled as A. Diamond
