Fig. 267. Pristella riddlei (Slightly reduced) Although not brightly colored, this little fish has many admirers. Milk-white spots on dorsal and anal fins, immediately adjoining intense black, spots, make an outstanding effect, especially as the fish is very active. We do not often meet with opaque white in fins. Lower dot in dorsal is yellow; tail is reddish. From Venezuela and Guiana and the lower reaches of the Amazon.
