Anadoras weddellii is a species of thorny catfish that is found in Argentina , Brazil , Bolivia and Paraguay.[1][2][3] This species grows to a length of 15.0 centimetres (5.9 in) SL.[2] The IUCN Red List considers Anadoras regani a junior synonym of Anadoras weddellii,[1] but FishBase and the Catalog of Fishes regard it as valid.[4][5]
The fish is named in honor of British physician-botanist Hugh Algernon Weddell (1819–1877), who presented the type specimen in the form of a dried skin and a drawing of the fish.[6]
