The Taiwanese site doesn't show a photo of A. maciliensis - or A. sp. Mamoré for that matter. I find this site quite accurate in its apisto IDs. Only A. atahualpa is mis-IDd as A. payaminonis. This is understandable because this page has not been change for almost 2 years and at that time A. atahualpa had been introduced into the hobby as A. cf. payaminonis. You'll also note that A. sp. Erdfresser/Lyretail Purus/Rondonia is listed under the Japanese common name A. sp. Rondonia. The nice thing about this site is that you don't need to read Chinese to ID the photos. Just point your cursor at any of the thumbnail photos and look at the bottom of your screen. You'll see that the location address for each picture is in Latin letters with English location names.
