Hi Dave, it would be worth having a look at C124 though C127 also seems to be a closely related species.
I'm sure some of the experts may have some other ideas though.

Interesting list you've got there.
Have you or anyone got any idea what C.serppa is or looks like as i've had a look around and can't find any info on it, its not a described name so just wondering if anyone has seen these with that name anywhere.

Aspidoras Pauciradiatus in england average around £2 each for fish around the 3/4-1" mark.
You've done well with the C.pulcher my lfs have recently had some that were up for sale at £18 each, though they were lovely fish.
