Oi!

Seja Bem vindo aqui!!!

I think it could be but it seems to be a bit away from the region it normally occur

Could be Microlepidogaster perforatus

but it is hard to tell since the pictures aren't too great!!

Um Abraço

Olá Yann!!

I´ve seen pictures of Schizolecis guntheri and i don´t think that is it...

The longitudinal strips are greated defined in all body. The tail can show a wine colorful, and the bigger one of than has 3 or 4cm...

I´ll try to take new pics with a better cam this week.

Do you know how to distinguish Hisonotus from Microlepidogaster?

Muito obrigado!
