It was proposed back in 2003 that the farm-bred phenotypes of Scleropages formosus be separated out from the CITES listing. That proposal has not been approved. The following phenotypes of the asian arowana included in the US ban are:
*Scleropages formosus was redescribed to include the strain known as the green arowana. The gold crossback, which was not part of the study, was included in this species by default, though it was suspected to be closely related to S. aureus.
*Scleropages macrocephalus described the silver Asian arowana.
*Scleropages aureus described the red-tailed golden arowana.
*Scleropages legendrei described the super red arowana.
