Panaque titan

Description

Panaque titan is a recently described species of freshwater fish from the Loricariidae family of South American armoured catfish. It is known from several rivers in the Napo river basin, Ecuador, where it was perhaps first encountered in 1975. In the aquarium trade there are two forms of fish that resemble P. titan; Panaque sp. L191 from the Caqueta river, Colombia and Panaque sp. L418 from the Huallaga river, Peru.
