Hi,

looks like the fish formerly known as Pseudancistrus sp. "L 67" is now known as Pseudancistrus asurini.
Pseudancistrus kayabi on the other hand reminds me a lot of L321 (that one I´m less sure about, though)..

Cheers,
Sandor

No, is Pseudancistrus zawadzkii.

Me too! ZooKeys is fantastic. Vastly superior to the other taxonomy journals. Glad to see folks publishing there now.

And also, did you know that you are permitted under the Creative Commons licence to republish any of the images from papers in ZooKeys?

There is a high resolution copy of all the figures available on the Web version of the article, and we can use them all in the cat-elog pages!
