Furthermore, it can also be separated from all other Characidae, except <i>Grundulus</i>, by having the nasal pores separated by a non confluent space (Fig. 2; <i>vs</i>. nasal pores very close and confluent); infraorbitals 4 and 6 (5, sometimes) absent (Fig. 4; <i>vs</i>. present); infraorbital laterosensory canal greatly reduced, with pores inconspicuous or absent (Fig. 4; <i>vs</i>. present); supraorbital laterosensory canal absent in posterior portion of the frontal (<i>vs</i>. present). Other useful diagnostic characters include: up to six olfactory rosette lamellae, turned to the posterior portion of the nasal canal (Fig. 3; <i>vs</i>. more than ten lamellae, generally more than fifteen, concentrically arranged; except in <i>Grundulus</i> and <i>Xenurobrycon</i>); adipose fin absent (Fig. 1; <i>vs</i>. present; except in <i>Grundulus</i>, <i>Gymnocharacinus bergi</i>, <i>Hasemania</i>, some <i>Hyphessobrycon</i> species, and <i>Spintherobolus</i>).</p> |
