Crossoloricaria
''Crossoloricaria'' is a genus of armored catfish native to South America with one species ranging into Central America. Taxonomy ''Crossloricaria'' is classified in the ''Pseudohemiodon'' group in the tribe Loricariini of the subfamily Loricariinae. This genus is poorly diagnosed and is in need of revision. Its only diagnostic character (incomplete abdominal cover consisting of a double median row of plates) is shared by two other representatives of the Pseudohemiodon group, '' Apistoloricaria'' and ''Rhadinoloricaria''. On top of this, ''C. rhami'' has a complete abdominal cover of plates, rendering this diagnostic feature invalid. ''Crossoloricaria'' also has some traits such as lip structure and barbel length that places it closer to '' Pseudohemiodon''. Species There are currently five recognized species in this genus: * '' Crossoloricaria bahuaja'' F. Chang & E. Castro, 1999 * '' Crossoloricaria cephalaspis'' Isbrücker, 1979 * '' Crossoloricaria rhami'' Isbrücker & ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

It extends from the Arctic Ocean in the north to the Southern Ocean (or, depending on definition, to Antarctica) in the south, and is bounded by the continents of Asia and Oceania in the west and the Americas in the east. At in area (as defined with a southern Antarctic border), this largest division of the World Ocean—and, in turn, the hydrosphere—covers about 46% of Earth's water surface and about 32% of its total surface area, larger than Earth's entire land area combined .Pacific Ocean .
