Silva JP, Sarmento-Soares LM, Tonini L, Freitas J. (2023). The contribution of local people to species conservation: the case of the catfish Trichogenes claviger in south-east Brazil. Oryx., 57(6): 693-693. doi:10.1017/S0030605323000893

is a catfish endemic to the Atlantic Forest and headwaters of the Itapemirim River, in southern Espírito Santo state, Brazil. It inhabits clear streams of small fluvial order and is categorized as Critically Endangered on the Brazilian and IUCN Red Lists. After its discovery and description in 2010, attempts to locate new populations, including in the neighbouring State Parks of Forno Grande and Pedra Azul, were unsuccessful. But 9 years after its description, the catfish was found in another locality, c. 4 km from the type locality (V. Reis, pers. obs., 2019).
