The identification of a Liosomadoras morrowi in the "whats my catfish?" section prompted me to dig up a couple of files from my hydrophone recordings during my research. so here they are:
I've heard this pattern several times from my , usually because he has a real problem with my largest Platydoras costatus when it trys to get into the morrowi's hiding spot. Its almost the exact same pattern to the "call" each time the costatus approches, intrestingly enough its only the largest of my 4 costatus triggers the noise.

the second recording is one of my smaller its about 3.5 to 4 inches long.
