General changed to [There is much confusion in both scientific papers and in popular publications between M. poecilus and M. aff. iheringi types from Colombia. This confusion may have resulted in an erroneous report of the maximum SL of M. poecilus as being 69mm. The original description of M. poecilus was based on eight specimens between 22-37mm SL. This size range is more typical of properly identified specimens of M. poecilus and 37mm may be a more accurate maximum SL for the species.] from [There is much confusion in both scientific papers and in popular publications between M. poecilus and M. aff. iheringi types from Colombia.
