Bagrus

Bagrus is a genus of bagrid catfishes. Its present scientific name was first proposed by Louis Augustin Guillaume Bosc in 1816 for the Bayad and its closest relatives. Although in 1809, Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire had already separated this fish in his new genus Porcus. But this was overruled by the ICZN, so that the junior synonym could continue to be used.
