Re: Is this a Range extension paper?
The fish (if correctly identified) is collected from a new locality within its known distribution, so it does not constitute a range extension. The authors also do not understand what a topotype is. A topotype would need to be collected from the type locality, but their collection locality is on the...

No, because water temp has never been an important parameter in my field work. But I’d estimate it to be about 23–25 degrees Celsius.

I may be one of the few members here who have caught them in the wild. The water was tea-colored, acidic (pH was not more than 6.0, maybe around 5.5 if I remember my notes correctly).
