We just received from P. Yap the suggestion that the new Paro should be called P. spec. Ampah. This is very good since we usually name new forms by the location, often (as in this case) the nearest town.
We are not quite sure whether it is a variant of filamentosus (I think so, but there are other opinions).
At any rate, there is no reason to be disappointed that it was not deissneri. The fish is new and this means it is still more interesting than deissneri.
We have a first photo and I hope to be able to show it here soon.
Here it is:
