It has beeen seen in fish shows
and labeled as Synodontis
irsacae but
S. irsacae has black edgings to all paired
fins and lacks spots to the dorsal. This undescribed
or hybrid species has the regular white barbels sported
on Lake Tanganyika Synodontis species.
Remarks:
We have decided to label each alleged 'hybrid' or
unknown Synodontis species with SC numbers
(ScotCat numbers) to identify each species exclusive
to the ScotCat website.
