I notice that they are regarded as related to Fluviphylax.

Pictures:
If you know German, this looks like it has some interesting info. The photos
are good too. (Here's where to try those translators.)

Neat! A Google translation of the above! Well, on the right track anyway.
It is a Beta translator. (I want that little livebearer so long as we are
wishing.)

If you can read Japanese, Bitter Exotics is offering them for sale.

Probably a search for Friedrich's site would be more productive. It does
seem like he has brought them in very recently. ;)

you can get his e-mail and inquire...

Books:

The Aquarien Foto Atlas p. 550.

John Dawes Livebearing Fishes: Guide to Their Aquarium Care, Biology and
Classification pages 17 & 57 line drawings.

Probably the Aqualog on Livebearers would have a photo too if a nearby
friend has it.
