Thanks for this information, but it would be easier to use if it was in English and not in capitals please. If we do go any further in terms of allowing you access to edit the data on this site, you'll need to do this.
Cheers,

Could one of you catelog data submitters double check and clean up Rudolf's information for addition to the site please?
Cheers,
Jools

I'm trying to sort out what's what of this. If I read it correctly, it's first listing countries, then districts and then rivers/lakes, etc. Unless of course our information is incorrect, and Rio Tabatinga is part of the distribution - which is not even part of the Amazon.
To be perfectly honest, I'm not entirely sure it's much point in listing more detailed information than "Upper Amazon" that we have. If we are going to list more occurrences, then I suggest that we should list ALL occurrences that are part of fishbase.

Tabatinga is the town on the Brazilian side of the border with Colombia. It rather merges into Leticia on the other side. You can walk around and not know you've gone from one town to the other or indeed crossed country borders.
As to this species, I've personally collected it about 50 miles downriver from Iquitos too. It's at least upper Amazon if not the whole drainage. I think the only info to use from that above is the holotype location.
I would agree that it's not very useful data at all. To me it looks like collection localities rather than range. Rudolph, can you comment please?

Yes, but if we are going to list collection points, then we should list all known [within reason] collection points:
http://www.fishbase.org/museum/Occurren ... genibarbis
But the question is why we should do that for this species, when we don't do it for all the other 2400+ species...

Agreed, and it's not very useful anyway. I'll move this to resolved as the data supplied isn't very useful / coherent.

If that's all you have listed for this species, that is one sucky database you have there.
