Most likely a question for @Silurus, I am checking the status of two species that I think might (I am not sure) have been mixed up. These two are:
(Nguyen, 2005 - originally Pelteobagrus tonkinensis) and Döderlein, 1887.
Firstly, what is pictured in the cat-elog?
Secondly, to which species does the data in the cat-elog belong?
My concern is they are mixed up.

Re: Tachysurus tonkinensis (Nguyen, 2005)
tokiensis=named after Tokyo
tonkinensis=named after Tonkin (the old French administrative unit for northern Vietnam)
The image in the Cat-eLog shows the correct species (the Japanese one).
