Taxonomy Question

[marya]

Do the names "Astatotilapia latifasciata" and "Haplochromis obliquedens" refer to the same species or is this a case of two different species that are often confused with one another?

The Hap. blue obliquidens is the only fish really that should be obliquidens, but I dont think it was ever imported.

Commercial dealers have called 3 varieties of Victorians as "obliquidens". None of these really were the right fish. One of these fish is the Astatotilapia latisfasciata.
