Etymology: Corydoras: Greek, kory = helmet + greek, doras = skin (Ref. 45335); froehlichi: Named for Dr. Otávio Froehlich (1958-2015), UFMS (Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul),.
Eponymy: Dr Otávio Froehlich (1958–2015) was a Brazilian zoologist whose bachelor’s degree was awarded by the University of São Paulo (1984) whist the Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul awarded both his master’s (2003) and doctorate (2010) and where [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 2; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 7 - 8; Raggi anali molli: 6; Vertebre: 22. This species can be distinguished by the following characters: midline of flank with a longitudinal series of relatively large black blotches, with size similar or larger than the size of orbit; with striated black spots from the snout tip to nuchal plate region, forming a somewhat marbled pattern; differs from C. difluviatilis by having a contact between the tip of the process of
the parieto-supraoccipital and nuchal plate; differs from C. habrosus by possessing a conspicuously thick transversal black bars on caudal-fin lobes; differs from its most similar congeners (C. carlae, C. ehrhardti, C. longipinnis, C. paleatus), by the absence of small plates on the ventral surface of the trunk; with a distinct rounded snout (Ref. 129023).

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.0 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
