A new species of Serrapinnus Malabarba, 1998 (Characidae: Cheirodontinae) from Rio Grande do Norte State, northeastern Brazil

Abstract: Serrapinnus potiguar, new species, is described from the rio Ceará-Mirim, a coastal drainage in the Rio Grande do Norte State, northeastern Brazil. The new species is distinguished from the other species of the genus by the shape and arrangement of the ventral procurrent caudal-fin rays of the sexually dimorphic males; where the hypertrophied elements present the shape of a series of scimitars arranged radially, forming a semi-circle on the ventral margin of the caudal peduncle. Furthermore, the new species is… Show more

“…This ecoregion includes coastal basins located between São Francisco and Parnaíba river basins, draining Alagoas, Pernambuco, Paraíba, Rio Grande do Norte, Ceará, and a small portion of Piauí States (Rosa et al 2003). Albert et al (2011) listed 88 freshwater fish species from MNCE; however, new species are being found and described (e. g. Parotocinclus seridoensis Ramos, Barro-Neto, Britski & Lima, 2013; Serrapinnus potiguar Jerep & Malabarba, 2014;and Hypsolebias martinsi Britzke, Nielsen & Oliveira, 2016). The estimative of freshwater fish species number at Brazilian Northeast may be premature, given the lack of taxonomic revisions and few representative regional collections (Rosa et al 2003;Langeani et al 2009.…”

“…This hypothesis was discussed by Jerep & Malabarba (2014). These later authors noted that almost all morphological evidences of relationships among cheirodontine taxa were ignored by Mariguela et al (2013) in their discussion, and a few morphological characters reported in that study were chosen to support their phylogeny in that they corroborate their cladogram.…”
