Abstract: The first species of Microglanis from the rio Amazonas, Amazonas State, Brazil is described. This species differs from all congeners by the forked caudal fin, and color pattern of the supraoccipital region consisting of two elliptical and juxtaposed pale spots, besides a combination of morphometrics characters.A primeira espécie de Microglanis da calha do rio Amazonas, estado do Amazonas, Brasil é descrita. Essa espécie difere de todas as congêneres pela nadadeira caudal bifurcada e padrão de colorido da regiã… Show more

“…The latter condition is usually present in adults of some species, as seen in M. poecilus Eigenmann, 1912, M. iheringi Gomes, 1946(Mees, 1974, M. pellopterygius Mees, 1978(Mees, 1978, M. robustus Ruiz & Shibatta, 2010(Ruiz & Shibatta, 2010, M. xylographicus Ruiz & Shibatta, 2011, M. oliveirai Ruiz & Shibatta, 2011(Ruiz & Shibatta, 2011, M. lundbergi (Jarduli & Shibatta, 2013), and M. leniceae. As noted in juvenile of M. maculatus Shibatta, 2014(Shibatta, 2014, the hooks of the anterior margin of the pectoral fin spine are retrorse in the beginning with addition of antrorses hooks throughout the development.…”

“…Microglanis Eigenmann, 1912 (Pseudopimelodidae) are a group of fishes with small body size (standard length of less than 11 cm [ 12 ]) comprising 28 species distributed across South America [ 13 ], [ 14 ], [ 15 ], [ 16 ]. The geographic distribution of these fishes is affected by physio-ecological constraints since Microglanis do not tolerate salt water, which prevent species from dispersing through the sea, sensu Myers [ 17 ].…”
