This specimen was identified by Corydoradinae expert and co-author of Identifying Corydoradinae Catfish, Ian Fuller who claimed it to be Corydoras sp. “CW115”. This is a one of the newer undescribed species from lineage 9 Corydoras. My image was published to Planetcatfish.com for their entry on Corydoras sp. “CW115”. This possibly unidentified species is from the ​1​Rio Manapiare in Venezuela. It is one of the newer generation of possible new species, given it is a CW-Number.

This Species will hybridize with other species within lineage 9 (some popular lineage 9 Corydoras are sterbai, adolfoi, panda etc.)
