id help on corys

[wayneg]

any know the id of the big cory seen them in a shop with no id on them as the guy is unsure as them came in a box as mixed corys.

[Martin S]

I was going to say

Corydoras weitzmani

but the markings aren't distinct enough. Will leave it for the experts!

Not weitzmani as the photo shows a long nose species

[MatsP]

Not certain, but

C127

springs to mind.

I also took the opportunity to move this to the "ID section".

the two in the front are septentrionalis and the ones in the back .. maybe undulatus?

[Shazray]

The smaller ones (i.e. middle and back) are Corydoras bilineatus. I have 5 of them and really enjoy them. They are more like the elegans cory and they swim mid-water more than my other cories.

Hi,

C. septentrionalis is a good call. If you have a good picture of the barbels you can confirm this.
It is one of very few species having a third rictal barbel.

For the other I agree that they seem to be C. bilineatus.

Cheers,

[Coryman]

The two long snouted species are at this moment in time unknown, Going by the head and snout shape, I do not believe they are C. septentrionalisit, There is a possiblility they are C. cortesi. The fish at the back look like C. napoensis.
