Chubby Pleco L number?

Post by Radius »

Hi,

I've been looking for the L number of Parancistrus aurantiacus, the rubber or chubby pleco. Am I blind? I can't seem to find it!

Any help would be appreciated!

I believe it never had one. The number L56 has sometimes been misapplied to this species.

I believe it was scientifically described before the L numbering system.

Thus, no L number.
