Wallagonia maculatus

provided by wikipedia EN

Wallagonia maculatus is a species of catfish in the family Siluridae (the sheatfishes) endemic to Malaysia, where it is known only from Sabah in northern Borneo. This species grows up to a length of 100 centimetres (39 in) SL.[1][2]

Until osteological research validated the genus Wallagonia in 2014, W. maculatus was included in the genus Wallago.[3]
