The Peru Green Stripe Corydoras or Peru Green Stripe Cory for me a synonym from Corydoras aeneus iluminatus
in http://www.scotcat.com/factsheets/aeneus.html describe also CW009 as a synonym from Corydoras aeneus but different autors describe aeneus in 2 valid variant, namely aeneus aeneus and aeneus iluminatus
please, delete this species

Ooh, controversial!
I've bred this little fish and I'm confident it's not an aeneus variant. It's either a valid species, most likely, or maybe a variant, along with CW10, of C. melanotaenia.

More recent, unpublished work presented at this years catfish convention in the UK suggests they are different and as Graham says, these fishes don't look the right shape. I'd disagree with that info on Scotcat. In this matter I'd tend towards corydorasworld.com.

Anyway, what is Corydoras aeneus. Maybe it's just the cory found on Trinidad? Until we know what they are, or at least know more, I think that stay put.

I think the same. I breed this species for a few years now and I don't think it's anything like Aeneus. In many ways it's very different.
