Ivanacara gen. nov and 3 Apistogramma spp. described

Postby Thomas Andersen » Wed Jan 03, 2007 2:33 pm

Apparantly Uwe Römer has described a new genus and three new Apistogramma species in the new "Mergus Cichlid Atlas II": http://www.mergus.de/cichlid_atlas_2.html

I have not read the book myself, but the new Apistogramma species should be these:

A. huascar (A. sp. "Sunrise/Sunpin")
A. pantalone (A. sp. "Lyratail")
A. rositae (A. sp. "Harlekin")

Two species of Nannacara are placed in the new genus, Ivanacara, I. bimaculata and I. adoketa.
