San Juan is just the name of the area that they are caught from, usually C. Elegans or C. Napoensis.

San Juan cory is the common name given to <i>C. bilineatus</i>. It's in the Cat-eLog.

I have to disagree HH.
Last year I purchased 12 Corys that came in as San Juan and they were Elegans and Napoensis, yet again the exporter using a made up name that causes confusion.

Well, I bought fish labelled as San Juan cories before and they were definitely <i>C. bilineatus</i>.
Blast these common names.
