Corydoradinae Lineage 9
"classic short-snouts"

Common species like Corydoras duplicareus, C. sterbai etc.

Example species below: Corydoras gossei.

The species in this lineage are the classic ‘short snouted’ species such as Corydoras adolfoi. When revised it would likely mean the resurrection of the name Hoplosoma (Agassiz, 1846). The designated type species would be Corydoras punctatus. This lineage is very species rich and many of the them have evolved relatively recently.
