Stomach contents or foregut content samples of the most abun­ dant species were collected from 26 species (lO families). The fish assemblage occupied the bottom stream. The similarity analysis of spalía! occupation ofspecies grouped four habitat use guilds: A) "Iambaris" (Aslyanaxsp. and Deutetodonlangei), Characidium spp. (C. lane; and C. plerosliclum) and Rineloricaria kronei used thebot­ tom in deep sites and waters with middle current; B) Pimelodella pappenheimi and Corydoras barbalusused the bottom in siles with JOwer cUI'l"ént; C) Mimagoniates microlepis used the surface of the water column; and D) Phalloceros caudimacullUus used shallow sítes and waters without current.

  • A New Species of Microlepidogaster (Siluriformes: Loricariidae: Hypoptopomatinae) from the Upper Rio Paraná Basin, Brazil
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 8(3):625-630, 2010 Copyright © 2010 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia A new species of Microlepidogaster (Siluriformes: Loricariidae: Hypoptopomatinae) from the upper rio Paraná basin, Brazil Bárbara B. Calegari and Roberto E. Reis Microlepidogaster longicolla, new species, is described from the rio São João of the upper rio Paraná basin near Brasília, in central Brazil. The new species differs from M. perforatus, the only other species in this genus, by having a continuous lateral line, median lateral plate series reaching, rather than falling short of, the end of the caudal peduncle, a shorter pectoral-fin spine (13.4-16.2 vs. 18.2-21.0% standard length), a smaller interorbital distance (38.9-43.1 vs. 47.7-53.3% head length), and more numerous dentary teeth (16-29 vs. 12-15), in addition to several osteological features. Microlepidogaster longicolla shows a remarkable suite of secondary sexually dimorphic characters, involving the presence of a conical urogenital papilla in males, the presence of a fleshy flap along the dorsal margin of first thickened pelvic-fin ray of males, longer pelvic fin in males, and a more strongly arched first pelvic-fin ray in females. Microlepidogaster longicolla, espécie nova, é descrita do rio São João da bacia superior do rio Paraná próximo a Brasília, no Brasil central. A espécie nova difere de M. perforatus, a única outra espécie do gênero, por ter linha lateral contínua, série média de placas laterais chegando até o final do pedúnculo caudal, menor espinho da nadadeira peitoral (13,4-16,2 vs. 18,2-21,0% do comprimento padrão), menor distância interorbital (38,9-43,1 vs.
