How to differentiate Alto.Sp"Sumbu dawrf" from other alto's?

[Florent]

the best name for this fish is A. sp "compressiceps shell" as it's found elsewhere in the lake and not only at SUmbu, it look like and seem to be close to A. compressiceps and is found on shell bed

The coloration is quite different as you can see in the CRC catalog , in aquarium all the "compressiceps shell" I had and saw are nearly white with dark black bars and yellow pectoral fins. A. compressiceps are more yellowish in ground color, A. calvus which is sometime white have small dots on scales in addition to bars . The shape and the adult size is also quite different

I hope it help
