Etymology: Leporinus: Latin, lepus, leporis = rabbit (Ref. 45335); britskii: In honor of Heraldo Antonio Britski, of the Museu de Zoologia of the Universidade de São Paulo, for his valuable contribution to our knowledge of Neotropical fishes, and especially for his important role in our understanding of Leporinus taxonomy (e.g., Britski, 1976; Britski & Garavello, 1978; Britski & Birindelli, 2008).
Eponymy: Dr Heraldo Antonio Britski is a Brazilian ichthyologist who was awarded a bachelor’s degree (1960) and a doctorate (1973) by Universidade de São Paulo where he is still a researcher, even though he is officially retired. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Kurzbeschreibung
Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie
Can be diagnosed from other congeners, except Leporinus amblyrhynchus, L. geminis, L. taeniatus, L. taeniofasciatus, L. unitaeniatus, L. vanzoi, by its dark longitudinal midlateral stripe and dark transversal bars on dorsum. Leporinus britskii differs from Leporinus amblyrhynchus by having four teeth on dentary (vs. three); from L. taeniatus by having 12 circumpeduncular scale series (vs. 16) and 37 to 39 scales on lateral line (vs. 36 to 37); from L. taeniofasciatus by having 12 circumpeduncular scale series (vs. 16); from L. geminis, L. unitaeniatus and L. vanzoi by having three teeth on premaxilla (vs. four), 37 to 39 scales on lateral line (vs. 40 to 43), four or five scale series above lateral line (vs. six), and 12 circumpeduncular scale series (vs. 16) (Ref. 88850).
Distinct pairs breed on densely grown weedy places (Ref. 205).
