''ZooKeys'', (480), 97–123. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.480.6540 is a species of catfish in the family Loricariidae. It is native to South America, where it occurs in the Xingu River basin in Brazil. It is usually found in shallow rapids with a substrate composed of small-to-medium flat rocks up to 50 cm (19.7 inches) in diameter above coarse sand and pebbles. Individuals are frequently seen hiding under these flat rocks during the day and foraging on algae growing on the upper surface of the rocks at night. The species is primarily herbivorous, feeding mainly on diatoms, although sponge fragments and sand grains have also been found in the stomach contents of specimens. The species reaches 17.1 cm (6.7 inches) in standard length and has an intestine that can reach nearly ...

Hypostominae
The Hypostominae are a subfamily of catfishes of the family Loricariidae. Most members are restricted to tropical and subtropical South America, but there are also several species (in genera ''Ancistrus'', '' Chaetostoma'', ''Lasiancistrus'', '' Leptoancistrus'' and ''Hemiancistrus'') in southern Central America. ''Hypostomus plecostomus'', which is popular in the aquarium trade, has been introduced to several regions far from its native range. Studies conducted with representatives of some genera of Hypostominae showed, within this group, the diploid number ranges from 2n = 52 to 2n = 80. However, the supposed wide karyotypic diversity the family Loricariidae or the subfamily Hypostominae would present is almost exclusively restricted to the genus ''Hypostomus'', and the species from the other genera had a conserved diploid number. Taxonomy *Ancistrini (sometimes considered a separate subfamily as Ancistrinae) ** '' Acanthicus'' ** ''Ancistrus'' ** ''Andeancistrus'' ** '' Ar ...
