Abstract excerpt

Two new species of whiptail catfish, Loricaria (Siluriformes: Loricariidae), were discovered in the Munim and Itapecuru river basins, Maranhão State, northeastern Brazil, through an integrative taxonomic approach combining morphology and mitochondrial DNA. Linear discriminant analysis revealed three morphometrically distinct groups, and coxI-based phylogeny identified four genetically divergent lineages of...
