Adolfoi or duplicareus ?

Post by kiwidu21 »

Good morning,

I recently acquired a group of 6 young corydoras adolfoi, normally wild. On the site where I took them, both species (adolfoi and duplicareus) are sold.
However, not only does the dorsal band seem very wide to me for Adolfoi, but in addition the images of the pectoral spines seem rather to orient us towards duplicareus. Could I have a confirmation please ?
As both are noted as wild-proven, do they have a close range?
I think this is all duplicareus.

Based on the spines, I would agree these are .

Cheers, Eric
