BBC NEWS�Science/Nature�New species uncovered in Venezuela:
"Among the new discoveries, revealed by US-based Conservation International, was an armoured catfish whose spiky head earned him the nickname 'punk' and a piranha that eats fruit as well as flesh.
The group are now calling on the Venezuelan Government to protect the Caura River Basin, where the species were found, designating the 4,500-hectare (11,115-acre) area a wildlife reserve."
