Aquarien Atlas 5

The sucker mouth catfishes are presently comprised of over 650 described and many additional, still un-described species. This makes them the largest family of South American catfishes, and many of its members are popular aquarium residents. The present tome is the first volume of a two part thorough treatise on the family Loricariidae, to an extent unavailable to date. The emphasis of this First Volume is on an introductory section describing the habitats and providing extensive information in regard to maintenance and reproduction as well as the presentation of the subfamilies Hypoptopomatinae (Otocinclus) and Loricariidae. These interesting fishes are lavishly presented in over 900 full-color photographs. An additional, more concise section deals with – as part of an overview of the South American catfishes in general – the families Cetopsidae (whale catfishes), Nematogenyidae, and Trichomycteridae (parasitic catfishes). The CATFISH ATLAS is intended as an identification guide for the interested aquarist, but also as an aid for the proper maintenance and reproduction of these fishes. The scientifically inclined reader, too, will find this worldwide largest monograph on sucker mouth catfishes an invaluable reference.

The true mailed catfishes, with around 150 described species and at least as many not yet classified by science, form a highly complex group. All things considered, research into the systematic of these fishes, which are apparently all very closely related to one another, is very much in its infancy. 
Now, it is true that in the aquarium hobby it is not the scientific name of a species, but the live fish, that is the center of interest. However, it is sometimes necessary to be able to indicate what species we are talking about, and hence C-numbers were brought into being in the magazine DATZ (=Die Aquarien und Terrarienzeitschrift), for identifying Corydoradinae that have been imported but not yet identified. 
The first C-numbers appeared in the DATZ of 12/1993. Since then a number of species have either been described as new species or identified as existing described species. The majority of C-numbers, however, remain just as difficult to classify as in the past. By the time the AQUALOG All Corydoras (ISBN 3931702138) was published in 1996, there was already C-numbers 1 to 46. In the meantime we have reached C132 and there is no end in sight. But we nevertheless feel it makes sense to publish this complete list of all the C-numbers to date, compiled in line with the most recent knowledge. With over 270 photos, a must for the Corydoras lovers.
