I have a load Matt, from 1″ juveniles upto around 8″, a good mix of patterns as well.

I will try and put a couple up later but I am still in Cumbria and most are on my PC.

Hi Charles you already sent me two articles from Amazonas which I’m trying to translate right now actually! If you have more info it’d be great but the translation takes time.

Charles/Thomas, what does ‘körperbin’ mean – is it ‘body stripe’?

Thanks for the pics Mark! I like the funky one without stripes!

Ok so:

Artbeschreibungswut – species description something?
Hinunterzuschwimmen – to swim out of?
Laichwanderschaft – breeding migration?
Sekundärbewuchs – secondary forest?
Blättergleichen – no idea.

Artbeschreibungswut – species description something? wut=rage, fury. here: the uncortrolled description torrent by some scientists. the rage of producing descriptions, out of control
Hinunterzuschwimmen – to swim out of? means to swim down a stream
Laichwanderschaft – breeding migration? yes
Sekundärbewuchs – secondary forest? bewuchs=all that grows on a substrat. here: the original forest is destroyed and replaced by other plants not original to the place
Blättergleichen – no idea. means: similar to leaves. here: looking like leaves

Unless anyone pitches in with additional info/corrections the text and references are finished. We still need more pics though, especially of adult specimens.
