Apistogramma feconat Römer et al., 2015

  • Holotype: MUSM 43066.
  • Paratypes (3): MTD F 33489 (1); MUSM 43067 (1); MTDF 32703 (1).

Type locality: Peru, Departamento Loreto, District Instituto, just outside Zona Reservada Pucacuro, “headwaters” of small right-hand forest stream feeding the Rio Pucacuro, about 10 km from the confluence of the Rio Pucacuro with the Rio Tigre (about 75°02′ W / 03°14′ S).

Etymology: The species name feconat , because it originates from tributaries of the upper and middle Rio Tigre, the name has been chosen to honour the Federation of the Native Communities of the Tigre (FECONAT) for its struggle to protect the environment of the tribal lands of the local native people from the impact of modern society.
