Keys

A very useful tool that I had not come across before. Clink the link and scroll down to Siluriforms. There are several useful keys covering over 30 families/genera/spp from the Key to the Panaque dentex group to the Syno spp of southern Africa.

Yeah, I've seen this kind of thing before. I wrote a rudimentary one for identifying corydoras in my late teens. HH also posted about adding keys to Planet and I could now certainly do that but it would take a few weeks to develop.

I could also just link to fishbase...
