Hi,

If you follows the revision of Peckoltia (Armbruster, 2008), then Peckolita brevis (LDA 78) and Peckoltia sp. "L 205" identical. (Then you should also write Peckoltia brevis. ;) )

Peckolita brevis (LDA 78) and Peckoltia sp. "L 205" but can be clearly distinguished. The most easily recognizable difference is the fine dots on the head:
Peckoltia sp. "L205"- the fine points goes to the dorsal fin.
Peckoltia brevis - the fine points, stops well before the dorsal fin.

P. brevis has aged an orange color. The body shape is different.
(Look Seidel/Evers "Wels Atlas 2" or Seidel "Back to nature" )
