Name Change for Tigrinus and Goslinia

[redtailfool]

Found this thread while browsing through planetcatfish.com

Merodontotus tigrinus is now Brachyplatystoma tigrinum, and Goslinia platynema is now Brachyplatystoma platynemum. Will try to verify the info later on.

[Tigrinus]

AWESOME---thanks for that article man. I always wondered why tigrinus wasn't a brachyplatystoma.

They should have kept it Brachyplatystoma tigrinus though. ****, my name isnt valid.

I hate it when that happens

 

[redtailfool]

and it happens a lot. I also agree why tigs werent classified under brachy in the first place. Tigrinum sounds good but im used to tigrinus.
