Biology:Cambeva

From HandWiki

Cambeva is a genus of catfishes (order Siluriformes) of the family Trichomycteridae.[1][2]

Etymology

The generic name Cambeva is the local term for these fishes in the Tupi language, a’kãg and pewa meaning "flat head", alluding to their dorsally flattened heads.[3] The Tupi phrase is also an alternate name for the local Omagua tribe of indigenous people, who traditionally practiced cranial deformation. The scientific name has also been used as a suffix to several proposed taxa that are now synonyms of Trichomycterus or Microcambeva; Cryptocambeva, Megacambeva, Paracambeva, Psammocambeva, Pterocambeva and Trichocambeva, all erected as subgenera by Wilson José Eduardo Moreira da Costa in 2021. Microcambeva is now allocated to a different subfamily, Microcambevinae.
