Very informative for us aquarium hobbyists who love Corydoras.

Stunning and beautifull,

"You may have already guessed it, but this is the group with the all the green ones" 😂I like the dry comedy moments! Thank you for this excellent breakdown of the new classifications, I suspect I'll be rewatching it several times because of the footage of some absolutely beautiful fish I've never seen before, but am now dying to learn everything about Aspidoras, while also trying to let the Latin sink into my brain meat and learn the new classifications. Love my Corydoras, but need to remember that none of mine are actually Corydoras anymore! But new classification did sound to be overdue, from the little I've seen on CorydorasWorld. The footage of wading into the water in that stunning natural habitat and seeing these incredible species in the wild is stunning too! I'm so jealous. What a dream job!

@@belowwater I've been checking out a lot of them since our mutual friend shared this one! Thank you for being gracious enough to share - they're especially fascinating to those of us hobbyists who may never be lucky enough to see these species in the wild! I'm also doing my best to learn the Latin and new classifications. Incredibly beautiful footage, thank you!

Thank you. Glad to hear my Brochis splendens keep their name!

yes, that is an easy one, but it now has friends...

If only the cory could hug you for all the love you give them 💌💌

Thank-you for the breakdown. It is the best and easiest to understand that I have come across. I always look forward to your videos.

Thank you! Clear enough for this old gal to understand.

Great video Oliver! Not to make it worse, but we have found out in Latin, Hoplisoma is Neuter(Neither Masculine nor Feminine) and while Corydoras, Aspidoras, Scleromystax, and Gastromdermus are Masculine Latin words, Osteogaster and Brochis are feminine, so therefore there are some species names changing as well. Osteogaster aenea, and Hoplisoma paleatum are a couple mentioned in the video where we have a species name change as well as the genera. Great work as always- look forward to all your videos!

yes, I suppose the ending can change! I am sure that this is not the final word on this, I am hoping for another genus with a perfect name, something like _La cucaracha_ with roaches. Genus _La_ now has a bunch of species including _La paloma_ and _La cerveza_ !

Great video and breakdown on this subject, its going to take me a long time to remember the proper names of my fish now and i have a lot of different species of corydoras oops not anymore 😅

Very useful video 👍

Great video as always, thank you. Any chance you could edit the list of new species names to include a line of space between each genus? It is really hard to see which genus you are on if you are scanning down the list or searching for an individual species. Cheers!

I can't because of the KZread character limit of 5000, that was the only way to fit it all in, we had to remove spaces, the full name and the authors. You can get a better list for viewing on planetcatfish or corydorasworld.

Very interesting

Had never heard of aspidoras until last week when I enquired about some sterbai and the breeder asked if I wanted aspidora as well. 6 sterbai and 6 aspidora moving in to.orrow, can't wait

So now my fish are Osteogaster aeneus! 😮😊 Thanks❤

I get it, but it's still frustrating, but the frustration isn't limited to just Cory's. All of the unclassified fish are a muddy mess. The C, CW, and L numbers definitely create plenty of arguments. Not using a truly standard measurement can add to it as well, at least in the US, where game fishermen only look at the total length of a fish to meet harvesting length regulations. Not knowing how fish are measured and documented in a given published article or book can lead to disagreements at times very heated. Thank you for the time and effort put into what you are doing. I greatly appreciate it. 😊

I call them the UpperCut-InYourFace fish !

@@belowwater It's been years since I spoke about fish in Latin names. I don't know if my brain can handle all the changes. ;) LOL

Hoplisoma is the New cory 😮

i'm more of a lumper than a splitter, but maybe i should read the scientific publication.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎

Great video, sad to see the corydoras name go away as it was such an easy latin name for a fish 😅

OK, instead of a cory fan and breeder I am now a Hoplisoma and Gastroderma guy - fine, I am german, I like to be exact anyway ^^

Oliver I always enjoy your content but this dose of info is a doozy...gonna take some getting used to 😉 Strange but I've never kept any of the species from here in Trinidad. And I certainly didn't know that we had that gorgeous green species. I think you need to write a book on these new classifications 👍🏻

Ian Fuller is your guy for Corydoras books, he knows more than anyone about them and his books have all the breeding information also. His next one certainly will include the name changes. I am just trying to help people understand how their fish fit into the new names!

it's one of the "green" ones, so _Osteogaster_ . We will see one day if that is just _O.aeneus_ in a nice colour form or a new species.
