False Shepard在英国和我们

The false shepard hybrid angelfish is a uniqueCentropygethat occurs with some regularity near ornamental marine fish collection sites in the Phillipines. Less than two years ago when the false shepard hybrid angelfish first started becoming available it was initially identified as a true Mango angelfish,Centropygeshepardi。At IMAC West 2009 John Coppolino pointed out that a similarCentropyge样品in the Quality Marine display tank was actually a documented hybrid between the flame and rusty pygmy angelfish species.

While in England prior to the InterZoo conference we spotted this fine large example of the false shepardi hybrid angelfish atTaunton Aquarium Centrein Somerset, UK. The appearance of theRusty Flamepygmy angelfish can vary from evenly distributed between the flame and rusty angelfishes, or it can take on a closer appearance to one of either parents.

有趣的是，Liveaquaria目前有两个假shepardi Anselfish出售的标本。看起来更像rusty angelfishand the other which is more like aflame angelfish。休息后，我们有更多关于英国假Shepardi嘉宾的照片，以及去年优质海洋上展示的华丽的视频。
