Apistogramma Species List
By Species-Groups/Complexes
As of September 20, 2024
Compiled by Mike Wise
(with assistance from Frank Hättich and Tom Christoffersen)
The genus Apistogramma is the most
species-rich genus of cichlid fishes in South America. When I first compiled
a list of Apistogramma species for the Apistogramma Study Group back in 1985
there were only 41 scientifically described species (one of which is now considered a junior synonym)
and less than 10 species that were considered undescribed species. Things have become more complicated
since then.
Presently, approximately 100 scientifically described species are recognized as valid, but genetic
studies show that many species actually represent multiple closely related species. Additionally, many
more undescribed Apistogramma species have entered the hobby over the past 35 years. A large number
of distinct populations (that we call “forms”) and color morphs also exist that may or may not be species
in their own right. At the time of this writing we have recognized over 400 species, forms, and distinct
population of Apistogramma.
The following list is the compilers’ opinion of which Apistogramma forms are distinct and
separate species, and which are merely geographic populations.
Our list is based on information provided to us by ichthyologists and apistophiles from all over
the world. The original list was influenced strongly by the works of Kullander, Koslowski and
later by preliminary genetic work by Ready, et al. and Miller & Schliewen. New data produced under the
auspices of the Institute of Research for Development – Instituto de Investigaciones de la Amazonía Peruana
(IRD-IIAP) by Tougard and other ichtyologists have expanded our knowledge even more.
We think that there needs to be some explanations for first-time users.
Why are the species listed by species-groups instead of alphabetically?
The primary purpose of this list is to help you identify your apistos. With so many species/forms, we
decided that the list would be more useful for identification purposes if all similar species were
listed together. We adhere to the “divide and conquer” method of identification. Why wade through
over 400 species/forms in an alphabetical list if you can only compare similar species/forms? In that
way there are many fewer apistos that you need to consider. To help you understand species-groups, we
describe the various species-groups in the article
"A Description of Apistogramma
Species-Groups” on this website.
Can there really be so many species?
The compilers of this list would like to think that there are fewer, but recent genetic data that we
have, both published and unpublished, indicates that there actually are as many – if not more - species
than we show on the list. Therefore we have resigned ourselves to be “splitters”. We do this for two reasons.
First, genetic studies indicate that the genus Apistogramma is not only evolving very rapidly
(Farias, et al., 2001), but that genetically distinct species can be almost indistinguishable from each
other (Ready, et al., 2006; da Costa, et al. 2019; Estivals, et al. 2020). Second, we feel that we need to
avoid crossing different populations in the hobby as much as possible. Many of these populations are extremely
rare and have not yet been studied scientifically. Once crossed with other similar populations many of these
possible species could be lost to the hobby. If they turn out to be populations of the same species then no
real harm is done, but if they turn out to be distinct species we then lose species purity in the hobby due
to unintentional hybridization.
How to read the list?
The list is divided into sections that correspond to species-groups, complexes, and subcomplexes as discussed
in the article "A Description of
Apistogramma Species-Groups".
There are also species that have characteristics of two closely related species groupings. These we list
as “bridge species” under separate headings.
Additionally, there are some species that cannot be confidently assigned to any species grouping. These
we list under “Affiliation Uncertain”.
Our list follows a format originally proposed by Miller & Schliewen (2005). Their phylogenetic tree
roughly starts with species-groups whose species show more primitive features and ends with those that show
more advanced features.
Valid scientifically described species are listed in alphabetical order first in each species-group, complex
or subcomplex. Apistogramma "forms" that we believe are distinct species, but scientifically undescribed
are then listed in alphabetical order. Forms that we believe are only geographic populations of a species are
indicated as such by being listed in the same cell below the species to which we believe they belong, but they
are shown indented.
Over time many species have been given more than one name. These are listed in “Other Names”.
Where there is more than one common name for an undescribed species or form, we tend to use the oldest or most
popular published name, as opposed to commercial/trade names. There are exceptions, however. We try to avoid
using names that look like scientific names, although they are not (e.g. Albertini, Wilhelmi). Such
common names continue to cause confusion among some hobbyists about what is a valid scientifically described
species and what is not. Instead, we give preference to location names, followed by descriptive names. We also
try to avoid common names that might be confusing, such as our using the name A. sp. "Cruzeiro" (for
the city of Cruzeiro do Sul) instead of A. sp. "Juruá", which can be confused with A. juruensis.
A-numbers listed in Stawikowski (2005) are included for many species. Those species without A-numbers have
been introduced into the hobby after the publicaton of the above book.
D-numbers were initiated by Tom Christoffersen for species/forms/populations recently collected, mostly
in Colombia, by Daniel Mejia-Vargas, Tom and others. Many are now appearing in the hobby trade.
Where a name is listed as "= A. xxx?" it indicates that we are not completely sure if it is the
same species.
Finally, we provide a generalized "Distribution" for each form, if known.
I doubt that others with an extensive knowledge of the genus will agree completely with this list, but we each
feel that it is accurate for the most part. It will undoubtedly change – as it has in the past – as new species
and data appear. We - Tom, Frank and I - hope that the list is helpful to those using it. We are always
interested in others’ opinions. Such discussions can only improve our understanding of the many species of
Apistogramma.
