Need to ID this pleco from Colombia

Just got a small batch of these plecos in. Never seen this one before. Any help figuring out what it is would be a great help.

I get triactis on a weekly basis but they do not look like this. Is this some locality variant?

Hi,

L. triactis is correct, we know about several slightly different colour morphs, thats a particular nice one.

Thanks very much for the info. I did not know triactis had varying morphs.

Check the catelog, i think these are called the "tiger fin" variety?

Asia calls them "Red Dragon" L91

L091 is a three beacon pleco that I've seen are darker but do have this tiger fin variety as well! Nice find
