OK, thanks! But how about the the black patch ont the first dorsal fin? I've seen a lot of Schwartzi pictures on internet, but they don't have the black patch?

Hello Vladimir,

there are different catching locations or populations of C. schwartzi, it's a rather variable species.
In fact, the dark blotch is typical for C. schwartzi even though most of the C. schwartzi that I have seen in the last time didn't have any.

Cheers,
