About this species
The Pemecou sea catfish (Sciades herzbergii), also known as the flapnose sea catfish, the mud cuirass, or the gillbacker, is a species of catfish in the family Ariidae. It was described by Marcus Elieser Bloch in 1794, originally under the genus Silurus. It inhabits marine, brackish and freshwaters in Brazil, Guyana, French Guiana, Colombia, Suriname, Venezuela, and Trinidad and Tobago. It dwells at a depth range of 1 to 5 m (3.3 to 16.4 ft). It reaches a maximum total length of 94.2 cm (37.1 in), while males more commonly reach a TL of 30 cm (12 in) and females reach a TL of 62.5 cm (24.6 in). It reaches a maximum weight of 1.5 kg (3.3 lb).
The diet of the pemecou sea catfish consists of annelid worms and benthic crustaceans. Spawning has been observed to take place at various times throughout the year, depending on the region. The species is currently ranked as Least Concern by the IUCN redlist, although it notes that its frequency in mangrove channels could potentially place it at risk of habitat loss.
