Leopard Catfish

Corydoras leopardus Myers, 1933

Also calledCaracha (spa)

First described in: Myers, G. S. (1933). New importations. Leopard Corydoras. <em>The Aquarium, Philadelphia.</em> 2 (8): 188-189.

Brochis leopardus, the leopard cory, is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging the family Callichthyidae, the armored catfishes, and the subfamily Corydoradinae, the corys. This catfish is very similar to, and often confused with, the three line cory, Hoplisoma trilineatum. The most obvious differences are that B. leopardus has a longer, more pointed snout than H. trilineatum, and B. leopardus grows larger than H. trilineatum.
