Cory's for Rio Xingu Biotype

Looking for advice on what species of cory's are found in the Rio Xingu, more so the common readilly available varieties.

Thanks in advance

Fugly, I had a quick look through the Corydoras books I have and the only one I could find specified as being found in the Xingu was . I haven't seen them available in this part of the world, maybe someone with their ear to the ground may be able to tell you how often, if ever, they are exported or if any other Corys are found in the Xingu.

In lieu of those perhaps you could consider Corys from the surrounding Amazon drainage in the Matto Grosso area? These include , , and , all of which should be fairly easy to get hold of.

If you take a look Here and put Rio xingu in the search box it will give you a thumbnail list of the species related to that river.
