Iatuba Tiger Pleco

I'm sorry if this is a duplicate question, but with my minimal skills at searching (or rather at finding answers!) I thought I'd ask.

Is this just another name of a known fish, or is it a new as yet un-named pleco? Just curious!

Thanks!

I have the same question. I actually got a group of 10 in and L140 seemed like a close match. Maybe I should post some pics. What or where is Iatuba? Does it stand for Itaituba possibly which is on the Tapajos? Which might also make L140 a likely match.
