Another good article popped up today about a recently discovered/ described species of Tandanus catfish.

I love the fact we are still discovering native species.

Hehe - really??? Must be what they mean when they say "....in the eye of the beholder". 

 

Exciting discovery but beauty is not among the first words that comes to my mind. :Rofl_3f:

They have been separated from the southern species for such a long time, so they have evolved into a separate species.

Oh crap, are they trying to get into debates with creationists or what?!
