Brachyplatystoma flavicans=Zungaro zungaro

Post by Silurus »

Did anyone notice that CLOFFSCA now considers B. flavicans to be a junior synonym of Z. zungaro?

I guess that would make what we now call Brachyplatystoma flavicans, B. rousseauxii (I arrived at this by elimination, and needs to be verified).

Yes, there are some posts on the fishbase forum to this end as the common name got confused between species during the changes too.

There are lots of things in this forum I need to address... I'll start working on them more from now on.
