Doncella

Pseudoplatystoma is a genus of severa catfish species in South America; part of the Pimelodidae family. The species are known by a number of different common names. They typically inhabit major rivers where they prefer the main channels and tend to stay at maximum depth, but some species can also be seen in lakes, flooded forests, and other freshwater habitats. They have robust bodies and are important food fish. Recently, their populations have declined due to a variety of factors, including overfishing and habitat destruction due to the construction of hydroelectric dams.
