Ariopsis guatemalensis
SPECIES NAME(s)
Blue sea catfish
The blue sea catfish (Ariopsis guatemalensis) is distributed in the Eastern Pacific from Mexico to Honduras. Stock structure and status have not been assessed in El Salvador. Therefore, the profile is structured as a Resource. Authorities report catches of "bagre" (the Spanish common name) in El Salvador as a whole, likely grouping several species in the same family (Ariidae) (CENDEPESCA 2020).
