C-numbers of Corydoradinae catfish.
Since the subfamily Corydoradinae is very numerous, and in order not to invent names for them, a system called “C-numbers” was created for this subfamily. This is not a scientific description, it is merely a way to allow people all over the world to understand that they are talking about the same fish. When a scientific name is assigned, the C-code is removed and the proper name is used.
