new Congoglanis

Post by lfinley58 »

New Species of Congoglanis (Siluriformes: Amphiliidae) from the Southern
Congo River Basin
Richard P. Vari, Carl J. Ferraris, Jr., and Paul H. Skelton
Copeia 2012, No. 4: 626 - 630.
A new species of catfish of the subfamily Doumeinae, of the African family Amphiliidae, was discovered from the Kasai
River system in northeastern Angola and given the name Congoglanis howesi. The new species exhibits a combination of
proportional body measurements that readily distinguishes it from all congeners. This brings to four the number of
species of Congoglanis, all of which are endemic to the Congo River basin.

Hi Birger,

I figured out the editing thing...about time, no doubt. So I deleted the "HELP" posting.

I will email you a copy of the paper a bit later today.
