Revision of Auchenipterichthys

Post by Marc van Arc »

Hello HH,
In a post of April, 8th in this very section, your source states that the well known name A. thoracatus is no longer valid and should be A. coracoideus.
I noticed that FishBase has both names as individual, different species.
Would you like to shine a light on this topic as well please?

Fishbase is usually slow in picking things like this up, especially since the revision was only recently published.
