Ordo: Siluriformes
Familia: Loricariidae
Name
Neoplecostomus sp. A – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Distribution
Upper rio Santo Antônio, rio Doce basin.
Diagnosis
Neoplecostomus sp. A differs from Neoplecostomus sp. B by the maxillary barbels poorly developed; premaxillary teeth and dentary with separate cusps and large concavity between them; lateral and central cusps with similar size; no developed papillae between branches of dentary; plates between dorsal and adipose fin meeting on the back of the dorsum.
Remarks
In this study, we refer Neoplecostomus sp. A such as a putative new species from the rio Doce basin, due to differences in morphology between this species and another from the rio Doce basin such as N. doceensis, and N. pirangaensis.
