No, although both electric eels and catfish are ray-finned fishes, electric eels are the only members of the genus Electrophorus. There are electric catfish, but they are not closely related to electric eels and their electric shock only reaches an intensity of 35o volts versus the electric eels' intensity of 6oo volts.
