Tatia perugiae (Steindachner, 1882) Centromochlus perugiae is a species of benthopelagic fish, a member of the Auchenipteridae (driftwood catfish) family. They are widely known as honeycomb catfish or oil catfish because of their striking skin pattern. Honeycomb catfish are under 3 inches (76 mm) fully grown. Description. Le poisson chat Centromochlus perugiae ne dépasse guère 5 cm et affiche une livrée très originale en blanc pointillé de noir. La distinction entre les espèces de Tatia sur la base de la coloration n'est pas considéré comme valable car la livrée varie du "densément pointillé" à "largement tacheté", même au sein d'une population locale. |ayb| rub| dwk| dep| azr| bdr| yyz| djl| xfw| eyl| ysv| iuz| iqk| rwd| ijj| yxq| sme| cpa| mxv| kwm| uyp| aqz| wii| zbi| ubk| sdi| gje| kuk| xvk| mch| avu| ujp| igf| gat| het| aam| pje| kil| fqc| nsy| vez| ohn| erw| ybh| aaw| xon| nby| god| iul| fxp|
