This genus isn't in the Cat-eLog at all!

And very interesting it is too!

Seems I can't use Sundadanio as an example of where color has been overlooked as diagnostic character any more. Which is a shame, since showing neon-blue "S. axelrodi" next to bright-red "S. axelrodi" hammered home the point so effectively.

I think this is the article Silurus intended to link to.
