Etymology: Glyptothorax: Greek, glyptes = carver + Greek, thorax = breast (Ref. 45335); filicatus: The specific name is fom the Latin 'filicatus' (adorned with ferns), in allusion to the frond-like arrangement of the skin ridges on the thoracic adhesive apparatus of this species.

Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 1; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 6; Raggi anali molli: 14; Vertebre: 38. Differs from all Indochinese congeners by the possession of a diverging pattern of striae running along the edges of the central depression in the thoracic adhesive apparatus. Other unique combination of characters useful to distinguish this species include dorsal-spine length 13.7-15.1% SL, pectoral-fin length 21.5-21.9% SL, length of adipose-fin base 13.3-15.0% SL, depth of caudal peduncle 8.4-8.8% SL, body depth at anus 15.1-16.0% SL, snout length 48.0-52.9% HL, eye diameter 8.9-9.9% HL, anterior nuchal plate strongly demarcated in beige and caudal peduncle with a pale vertical band (Ref. 79574).
