Citing the aenea assessment under the schultzei\n       name would misrepresent what's actually been evaluated, so it's\n       left out rather than forced.\n     - No FishBase block: same reason - no independent FishBase page for\n       schultzei turned up; it's folded into the aeneus complex there.\n     - PlanetCatfish and ScotCat both have real, dedicated pages for\n       Osteogaster schultzei specifically (ScotCat's even documents the\n       black strain by name), so those two carry the Resources section\n       this time instead of IUCN\/FishBase.\n     - IMPORTANT - PLEASE CONFIRM: paragraph 3 is deliberately non-\n       committal on whether this breeding group was bred\/raised in your\n       fishroom or is the friend's protected line being dispersed.

Holly described it in 1940, the type specimens were destroyed in WWII, and for the next fifty-odd years it sat as a synonym of Corydoras aeneus with no material left to argue the point either way. Tencatt and colleagues made a case in 2023 that it holds up as its own species, and the 2024 genus revision filed it under the resurrected genus Osteogaster, Lineage 7, pending a proper resolution. Current status: valid but unsettled. Also worth knowing - plenty of vendors sell this exact fish as \"Corydoras venezuelanus black.\" That's a different species from a different country.
