It is a neotropical genus of ray-finned fishes distributed in the Amazon Basin to Mato Grosso and Paraná Basin, Paraguay, to the Rio de la Plata. With such geographical spread is not surprising that there is adaptation to different ecosystems, which has resulted in variations in size, color, eating habits, and types of water inhabited.

gollark: Maybe I should just do stacks, those are fun.
gollark: Yaaay!
gollark: I've just realized that if I have a register which always contains 0, some of my instructions just become special cases of other instructions, which is quite neat.
gollark: SPARC sounds very strange.
gollark: They are part of the instructions.
