Hello, I recently took at trip to Peru and got to do some fishing and seining and got some pictures of some awesome knifefish. Although I have researched them and come up with a few names, I am not entirely sure about some of them. If anyone could help I.D. some of them that would be awesome! I apologize for the quality of some of the photos but its all I got. The link below is a link to my flickr album with the photos of the knifefish. Thank you!

Very cool!
Left to right, first row: Sternarchella schotti, Parapteronotus hasemani, Eigenmannia limbata, and Rhamphichthys rostratus. Second row: Looks like another Eigenmannia limbata, Eigenmannia macrops, and Brachyhypopomus- not sure of this one, since they usually have more color, but face looks like B. brevirostris.
 
Not sure about these guys, but if you post this in the catfish forum, I'm sure they'll hook you up with IDs in no time.
