Etymology
Hop to next section Species Information
Identification This cory can be imagined as having the body of C. armatus with an arc stripe. The coloration is variable, with some specimens having a solid arc and others having the arc broken along the body (similar to C. evelynae). Although in some ways similar to C. urucu, CW159 grows nearly twice as long.
General Remarks This fish has been imported recently to Aquarium Glaser and sold as "cf. urucu," but it appears to be a distinct species. It originates from the Rio Purus area.
