Sumer Tiwari has released 5 new hard-enamel fish pins at the end of 2022 in support of the work of Dr. Leandro Sousa!

They’re back for another year; 5 new enamel fish pins from AMAZONAS contributor Sumer Tiwari and artist McKenna Bendigo. Last year’s set of 5 enamel freshwater fish pins was a hit, and benefited the organization International Rivers.

“These 5 species are some of my favorite species,” wrote Tiwari, introducing this year’s set. “I created these pins in an effort to raise some funds for an organization that’s working towards making the world a better place for us and for the generations to come. All the profits generated by the sale of this hard enamel pin set will be donated to the organization @ictioxingu. IctioXingu is run by Dr. Leandro Sousa who works on protecting the species of Rio Xingu.”

Pin set number two features Spectrolebiaus reticulatus, Betta macrostoma, Etroplus canarensis, Dawkinsia rohani, and Hypancistrus sp. 173.
