 Scientific Name  Corydoras sp. (Cw025)    - add this species to your "My Cats" page.
 Common Name(s)  CW025
 Pronunciation  Kory DOOR ass
 Etymology  Cory = helmet, doras = skin. In this case it was incorrectly used to mean armour (cuirasse) instead of skin in allusion to the dual rows of plates that run along the flanks of this genus. 
Scroll down to next sectionSpecies Information
 Identification  Corydoras are identified by their twin rows of armour plates along the flanks and by having fewer than 10 dorsal fin rays. They are most commonly confused with the other genera in the sub-family, namely Brochis, Scleromystax and Aspidoras.
