Long time no see...

A friend caught this specimen in Central Brasil... Only thing I know is that's a nice fishie.








Any ideas on the ID?

Oh, I noticed the pics become small here... Maybe the links are useful. Images get a lot bigger in the browser.

I think this is Glanidium ribeiroi.

My first impression was or something very close.

Thanks for the help, guys... The guy who caught it said its colors were identical to these of Tatia simplex, BTW.

Still don't know exactly what it is, but we have fewer options now.

Best regards.

Daniel.

The larger and fewer spots of your specimen rule out Tatia simplex imo.

the caudal fin shape is wrong for Tatia simplex- your specimen has a strongly forked caudal fin without the rounding of fin tips evident in Tatia.
