And I quote”




The species name L. enigmatica is Latin for baffling or inexplicable in reference to the unexpected discovery, obscure relationships and origin of the new catfish. The researchers also suggested the common name “Chiapas Catfish”.

Lundberg, the Academy’s Curator of Ichthyology, said only about 30 of the fish have been found since the 1990s and only one specimen was collected in a recent five-day expedition. “This find reminds us that the most basic scientific inventory of Earth’s biodiversity is woefully incomplete.” Lundberg said.

Anatomical studies aided by high-resolution computer images allowed researchers to pinpoint key differences from other species in the bone structure of the skull, the shape of the air bladder and the articulation of the barbel (the part that resembles a cat’s whisker).

Studies also show the fish is the only member of an ancient group that may have arisen millions of years ago when dinosaurs roamed the Earth.
