A recently discovered species of Corydoras has been coded CW 187 by Ian Fuller. It occurs in the Rio Juruena in west central Brazil. The Rio Juruena is tributary to the Rio Tapajos which flows into the Amazon River just above Santarem.

Freckled Cory!... That's what I'm calling it

Looks lovely not as nice as CW 104 or albino bronze but still lovely
 
Looks similarly patterned to the corydoras Loretta.The Loretta is a pale blueish colour with dark spots and has a taller dorsal.The CW 187 must come from areas with brown sand judging by its amazing camouflage.

Thanks for introducing us to this new species byron
