Trachelyopterus fisheri

Post by The.Dark.One »

The clog profile says "the nape and the enlarged dorsal spine make it look more like an Ageneiosis or a Tetranematichthys. As far as we know, T. fisheri is the only member of its genus that has these features to this extent."

T. badeli, T. insignis, and T. teaguei, and to a lesser degree T. amblops, all have this feature.

See bold [now blue. -Ed] print. I believe I wrote that 5 years ago and had not heard of - let alone seen - the species you mention (except for T. insignis).
Will change when I have some spare time.

There must be something wrong with your display then.

I was on my work computer, and it certainly didn't look as different as it does here. Not sure why - there's a fair number of things different, so not sure what that may be caused by.

Changed/deleted.
And it indeed said "Ageneiosis", which is rather sad. Changed that too.
Thanks for the spot.
