Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Vértebra: 30. Diagnosed uniquely from its congeners by the reduction or absence of azygous plates in front of the nuchal plate. Differs further from its congeners by the presence of a minute lateral cusp in the teeth, wider body, anterior and lateral profile of head rounded, broad distal profile of the paired fins, and lower number of vertebrae (Ref. 56057).
Known from stony piedmont tributaries of the left bank of Rio Paraíba do Sul.
