Just to note that the pic taken by me was not of a fish captured in the llanos but in the Colombian Amazon. To my eye this looks to be one widespread fish, but if L 152 is for a fish that was captured in the Rio Apure, then this is not L 152. Was there an L number assigned to an Amazonian Pseudorinelepis? No access to books at this second.

Just to butt in, I thought this might be useful http://www.auburn.edu/academic/science_ ... udrin.html.

I know it doesn't mention L152 specifically, but from when I read through it (and one of the papers cited in it), It suggested to me that L152 and Pseudorinelepis genibarbis were one and the same (based on the varied colouration). I don't whether the known river locations tally together for both, but it was only one specimen from the Rio Branco which exhibited the typical P. genibarbis colouration. Assuming that the rest were "completely dark brown to black; mottled with tan to dark brown background and black streaks; or light tan with large, sparse spots located at base of lateral plates, on fin membranes, and on abdomen."

Fixed, all common names now work. .

There are three pinecone plecos. P. genibarbus Amazonas, L95 Red cheek spots, mostly black water such as Rio Negro, Demini and L152 the Orinoco Pinecone. Good question. I shall correct the site accordingly - correcting stuff like this is good use of my time.

This has now been completed.
