There are several different shovelnose species out of peru, the one you listed is a TSN variety, Pseudoplatystoma Fasciatum, there is also Pseudoplatystoma Tigrinum, Sorubim Lima, Sorubimichthys Planiceps, Brachyplatystoma Juruense, and others
There are 8 different variants of TSN's according to the latest scientific journal. I have the pdf if you'd like it, its a pretty good read ~Trent

Sure, Id like to see it.
Yeah I know I have a TSN, I just wonder the species now. I didnt know there where different kinds like that.
yup, and there's catfish that are considered shovelnose in many different countries outside the family pimelodidae, but it probably has the largest number of shovelnosed catfish.
