Female A. uaupesi????

Hi.

These females arrived mixed with an import of Paracheirodon axelrodi to Colombian Fishstore...

There are no males, only two females and one knows neither the place nor the river origin. :frown:

It is from an iniridae-group species. It could be A. uaupesi, Segelflossen/Sailfin, or Blutkehl/Cutthroat. These are all closely related forms that show minor variations in the dark markings. I do not see enough to identify the fish any better.
