Pleco Identification

[Isaiah75]

I recently purchased this pleco and my local fish store had someone trade it in and no one seems t know what kind it is. Can anyone help me out with identifying this cool looking pleco. These are the best pics I could currently gather. Thanks in advance.

Upon further research I’m lead to believe it’s a L262 Stardust. Still would like potential confirmation if possible

Sorry this one has me stumped.
I don’t disagree with your guess of being a stardust, I’m not even remotely familiar to deny or confirm.

Looks alot like my L262. Nice one too.

That is an L48 Scobinancistrus pariolispos, Golden Cloud Pleco. You can see the saddles in the first pic

Negative wrong head shape

Not L48. At this this size L48 won't have this fine spotting either. 262 can show saddles as well. Looks like stardust

I just looked in my tank and caught my L262 in the front. Here's a pic. Looks pretty much like Isaiah75 pleco. Isaiah75 pleco is probably stressed from being in new tank and the light-colored sand is probably making him lighter

Yes, the first pic was in fact shortly after introducing him to the tank and the others were a day later. I would have to agree he looks more comparable to your stardust that the L48. Thank you so much all of you. Much appreciated having everyone’s input.
