Short description
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 7; Espinas anales: 1; Radios blandos anales: 5. Distinguished from its only congener Cteniloricaria platystoma by its distinctly spotted color pattern (vs indistinctly marbled), and its specific barcode sequence. Additional characters useful to separate this species from Cteniloricaria platystoma are the following: greater predorsal length (mean = 30.91 ± 0.38% of SL vs 29.91 ± 0.90 in Cteniloricaria platystoma; HSD, p-value < 0.0001); anus to pectoral-fin origin length (mean = 23.92 ± 0.89% of SL vs 23.31 ± 0.93; HSD, p-value = 0.0429); body width at dorsal- fin origin (mean = 15.17 ± 0.61% of SL vs 14.62 ± 0.91; HSD, p-value = 0.0228); body depth at dorsal-fin origin (mean = 10.04 ± 0.69% of SL vs 9.16 ± 1.00; HSD, p-value = 0.0012); head depth (mean = 42.21 ± 2.37% of HL vs 40.83 ± 2.85; HSD, p-value = 0.029); and more numerous premaxillary teeth (mean = 47 ± 6 vs 40 ± 12; HSD, p-value = 0.0099) (Ref. 90209).
