Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale) : 1; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 7; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 3 - 4. This species differs from its congeners inhabiting the Río de La Plata and coastal
basins of southern Brazil, except A. agostinhoi, A. multispinis, A. mullerae, A. taunayi and A. formoso, by possessing a maxillary barbel shorter and not free from its lower lip (vs. longer and free from lower lip); from the first 4 species, by the width of mandibulary teeth row 13.4-15.5% of HL (vs. 15.8-19.3%, 15.5-19.4%, 16.5-21.0% and 15.8-23.1%, respectively) and 32.9-37.9% of interorbital width (vs. 38.4-53.6%, 40.7-53.8%, 39.3-58.0% and 39.4-51.4%, respectively); from A. formoso by orbital diameter 11.9-15.3% of HL (vs. 8.3-8.7%), caudal peduncle depth 9.0-10.9% of SL (vs. 7.8-8.7%) and number of dentary teeth 40-68 (vs. 110) (Ref. 83296).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Facultative or obligate air-breathing (Ref. 126274)
