Dear Kitty. Some blog

This video says about itself:

Apistogramma barlowi, formerly sp ‘Maulbruter’

This species has very recently been scientifically described and given the name A. barlowi, it was previously known as either sp ‘Maulbruter’ or ‘Brustband’..it is the only species of apisto that practices mouthbrooding of its fry. This video shows the female mouthbrooding her fry.

From Practical Fishkeeping:

A new species of dwarf cichlid from northern Peru has been named after famous cichlid biologist George Barlow.

The new species, Apistogramma barlowi, was described by German scientists Uwe Römer and Ingo Hahn in the latest issue of the journal Vertebrate Zoology.

Apistogramma barlowi is easily distinguished from other members of the genus by the adult males having a disproportionately large head and enormously enlarged mouth with massive lips.

Also from Practical Fishkeeping:

Scientists from Brazil and Argentina have described a new species of heptapterid catfish from northeastern Argentina.

The new species is named Rhamdella cainguae in a paper published by Flávio Bockmann and Amalia Miquelarena in a recent issue of the journal Zootaxa.

Rhamdella cainguae is distinguished from other members of the genus in having a distinct and large ovoid area in the supraorbital laterosensory canal between the frontal and sphenotic delimited by the apparently slender dorsal walls of these bones and with no foramen for a laterosensory branch.

Finally for today, also from Practical Fishkeeping:

Brazilian scientists have described two new species of darter tetra from eastern Brazil. The two new species are named Characidium nupelia and C. xavante by Weferson da Graça, Carla Pavanelli, and Paulo Buckup in the most recent issue of the journal Copeia.

Well … I said ‘finally’ … without then knowing that this was still to come:

Chinese and Japanese scientists have described a new species of bagrid catfish from the middle Yangtze River drainage in southern China in the latest issue of the journal Ichthyological Research.

Authors Jian-Li Cheng, Hajime Ishihara and E Zhang have named the new species Pseudobagrus brachyrhabdion, after the short maxillary barbels of this species (Greek brachys – short, and rhabdion - rod).
