Taxonomy & naming
This is an undescribed form: no scientific name, authority or type material stands behind it, and its identity and range are not documented in the sources the atlas uses. Wet Spot lists it as Microglanis sp. "Colombia". Imperial Tropicals sells a "Chameleon Whiptail 'Colombia'" that the atlas has matched to this label by name only; that listing never uses the name Microglanis, so it is not taken to describe the same fish.
Morphology
Microglanis are small catfishes of the family Pseudopimelodidae, usually mottled or banded, with a broad head and a small adipose fin (genus-level). No description of this form is on record.
Habitat
The only origin given is the word "Colombia" in the label. Microglanis live in streams and rivers across tropical South America (genus-level).
Feeding
Microglanis are nocturnal predators that take small fish and invertebrates (genus-level). Wet Spot gives no diet for this form.
Mating
Spawning of this form is not documented.
Breeding
No captive-breeding record for this form is held by the atlas.
In the aquarium
Wet Spot writes that its team has not filled in descriptions for every fish and advises independent research before buying. The atlas holds no care figures for this form. As a genus-level caution, small fish can be eaten by Microglanis.
Conservation
No IUCN assessment exists for this undescribed form, and its range and numbers are not documented, so its conservation status cannot be stated.
