A 160, A. cf. irinidae, W?

[Chris(wildcaught!)]

While enjoying the new Datz book "Südamerikanische Zwergcichliden", i looked at the pictures of my, for the time being, personal favorite A. irinidae. And i see number A 160 with red markings on the gill cover which is spectacular. But can it really be a female as the text indicates (A 160, A. cf. irinidae, W). So far my guess is that its a male on the picture. Anyone who can comment?

Hi Chris,

I think, this is a mistake.... it's obviously a male on the photo.

Thanks rolo!

Just what I thought. That had to be a male fish.
