Review of the genus Hypostomus Lacépède, 1803 from rio Ribeira de Iguape basin, with description of a new species (Pisces, Siluriformes, Loricariidae). Zootaxa, 921: 1-27.
Abstract

Species of the loricariid genus Hypostomus Lacepede, 1803 from rio Ribeira de Iguape drainage (Säo Paulo and Paranä States, Brazil) are reviewed. Four species were found in the area: H. agna (Miranda-Ribeiro, 1907), H. ancistroides (Ihering, 1911), H. interruptus (Miranda-Ribeiro, 1918), and a new species H. tapijara. Hypostomus tapijara is distinguished from its congeners inhabiting rio Ribeira de Iguape basin by the presence of well defined large, dark, and roundish spots some-what homogeneously distributed over body and fins, and by its relatively broad dorsal fin (interradial membranes apparently wider than in examined congeners from coastal Brazilian drainages). A key, descriptions and illustrations are provided for all species.
