Pronunciation already fixed, but I've fixed the etymology that was wrong too.

Now why would South American and Asian fishes speak with the same accent?
I have never seen this characteristic noted in a cladogram.

Actually to the well trained ear they do not. Hypancistrus have a slight lisp due to their suckermouth.
