In magneto-photoluminescence spectra of a two-dimensional hole gas in a GaAs quantum well we observe coupling of two different radiative states. The pair of coupled states are an acceptor-bound trion AX+ and an essentially free (only weakly localized by a shallow lateral potential) trion X+, brought into resonance by an additional cyclotron excitation controlled by the magnetic field. The coupling mechanism is the exciton transfer, and the optical signature is a clear anticrossing of the emission lines of an X+ and a cyclotron replica of the AX+.
