Post by wingor »

Can anybody tell the difference in appearance between a juvenile brachyoplatystoma sp."nanay river" and bracyoplatystoma juerense "flash zebra"?

A google search brings zero results for Brachyplatystoma sp. "nanay river". I believe "flash zebra" is a commercial name given to well patterned juerense. Without a pic of "nanay river" i cannot say if they are separate species, regional variants etc. have you got a pic at all?
