Phathead: Sure, it's a close relative to Panaque Nigrolineatus - I think featherback would like to confirm that it's the particular Xingu variety....

Plus from my research and experience all pl*cos of this genes that have horizontal lines are from the Royal family, in Common name, be Olive Royal, Golden Royal, etc. Its basically determining what color the lines are.
