Blue jumper cat?
Posted: 07 Feb 2018, 22:38
Hey everyone,
I'm new to planet catfish, but frequently use the cat-elog, so I figured it was time I joined up.
I was wondering if anyone here was familiar with a fish called the "blue jumper cat." The name is used by collectors in Iquitos, Peru for a smallish pimelodid with a dark, bluish back and long barbels. I've attached two photos of different specimens. Any thoughts on what species this is? I have yet to even figure out the genus....
