Boa Tarde,
Very interesting group. I have been looking at your photos for some time and comparing reference photos I keep. Do you know the rivers where they were collected?

So far P. Leopardus all have dark eyes and even with a flash are not white.

The first two photos look to be non-typical L25s. I have photos of some that look similar.

The third photo from the pectoral fins back looks like p. Leopardus but the eye, head shape, and overall 'attitude ' appears L25.

The fourth photo is just wow! Never seen anything like it before. Unungy sent me photos years ago of 2" young that were similar but I don't remember what they were.

I hope you have extra information because yours are not typical.

Regards,
Jim
