Redescription of Glyptoperichthys scrophus (Cope), a loricariid catfish from Peru. Ichthyological Exploration of Freshwaters 7:185-191.

Abstract:
A species of Glyptoperichthys originally described by Cope (1874) as Liposarcus scrophus is distinguishable from the six species recognized by Weber (1991,1992). Glyptoperichthys scrophus is easily recognized by its extremely elevated supraoccipital crest, a body that is uniformly colored except for three large, bold, dark brown saddles that extend down the side of the body, a light-colored upper caudal fin ray, and a light interorbital stripe. Dark or light spots on the body and dorsal fin, present in all other species of Glyptoperichthys, are absent. All known records of G. scrophus are from the upper Rio Amazonas basin of Peru.
