I doubt that they have made such a mistake, i know that that retailer has a "catfish specialist" 
on their staff... well, one could ask the lfs to order one, just to see...

Since the name brachynema means "broad thread", it's likely that they could be referring to or also. But since they have a specialist...

Have some news in this matter... Talked to the "specialist" at the retailer today, he said that it was definitively a Synodontis sp. very rescently being imported (for the first time?) and he said that it looked like a "regular" synodontis in body shape with a olive-green/grayish colour and that they also was imported under the name "Apple synodontis" they did not have any broad feelers ala S.membranaceus (sorry for any spelling errors). He also did not recommend me to order one, because of the dull colours of the fish, so i didn't.
