 Cat-eLog Data Sheet | |
|---|---|
| Scientific Name | Tachysurus gracilis (Li, J, X-L Chen & BPL Chan, 2005) |
| Common Name(s) | None |
| Type Locality | China: Guangxi Province, |
| Synonym(s) | Pseudobagrus gracilis |
| Species Information | |
| Size | 173mm (6.8") SL. Find near, nearer or same sized spp. |
| Identification | The genera Pelteobagrus and Pseudobagrus form a monophyletic group, but the monophyly of the two genera are uncertain. Traditionally, members of the genus Pelteobagrus have been distinguished by their forked caudal fins (vs. truncate/emarginate caudal fins in Pseudobagrus). This convention is still largely used in current literature and is adhered to here. There are some Chinese species assigned to the genus Leiocassis (longirostris, crassilabris, tenuifurcatus, virgatus and argentivittatus), but have been tentatively placed in Pseudobagrus by Mo (1991). |
