L202 and L205

Post by Icthician »

How do tell them apart? Does anyone have an idea from where both these species hail?

Thanks,

L205 has a spotted head, L202 doesn't.

L202 comes from the Orinoco River in Venezuela, L205 from Peru.

Now that you have pointed that out and I took another look at the pictures, I can see the difference. Thanks
