Introduction
Since the original description oi Hisonotus by Eigen-
mann & Eigenmann (1889), many species of this
genus have been considered as species of the genera
Otocindus or Microlepidogaster. Subsequently, Schae-
fer (1998) redefined the genus Hisonotus based on
the absence of plates anterior to nostrils and the
presence of rostral plates with large odontodes and
proposed the inclusion of several species of Micro-
lepidogaster and Ofocindus within the genus Hisono-
tus.
In southern South America, about 13 species of
the genus were found in the rivers Paraguay, Parana,
Uruguay, and Rio de la Plata, and Los Patos System,
Only two of them are present in the Uruguay river
basin, H. ringueleti Aquino et al., 2001 and H. macu-
Upinnis (Regan, 1912).
The objective of the present contribution is the
description of a new species of Hisonotus from the
rio Uruguay basin in the Republica Oriental del
Uruguay,
Methods
Specimens were cleared and counterstained following
Taylor & Van Dyke (1985). Measurements were taken
as straight Hue distances using digital callipers follow-
ing Boeseman (1968). Counts include holotype and 11
para types; values of the holotype are indicated by an
asterisk, Vertebrae count includes those ones corre-
sponding to the Weberian apparatus and the caudal
centrum (CUl+PUl) as one element. Institutional ab-
breviations are as listed in Leviton et al (1985) with the
addition of Asociacion Ictiologica, La Plata, Argentina
(Al) and Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad de la Repu-
blica, Montevideo, Republica Oriental del Uruguay
(ZVC-P).

Diagnosis. Hisonotus camiomhe, spec. nov. is diag-
nosed by the following combination of characters:
presence of heavy serrae along complete posterior
pectoral spine margin, presence of narrow odontode
free area along anterior margin of snout, 5 anal-fin
branched rays, lateral line canal incomplete and
discontinuous with an anterior field bearing 2-7 pores
and posterior field with 8-19 pores.

on first branched ray of pelvic fin. Abdominal region
of males naked, females with few plates on midline.
Genital papilla of males longer, slender and more
acute than that of females, Preanal region without
median plates in males.
Etymology. The specific epithet amdombe is a Spanish
word that refers to the African derived rhythm that was
popularized in the nineteenth century by black slaves
in the Republica Oriental del Uruguay.
Distribution and habitat. This species is known
from the arroyos Palomas, Departamento Salto, and
Catalan Grande, Departamento Artigas/both streams
belong to the rfo Uruguay basin {Fig. 3). The type
locality is a small, shallow creek with muddy soil
and clear, slow-flowing water {Fig. 4). Hbouotns
amdombe was only collected inbetween aquatic plants
as Luduyigia sp, and Pofamogehm sp., and on leaves
of terrestrial plants hanging into the water. Near the
place where specimens were collected other creeks
have rocky bottom, loose stones and rapid current
water. Moderate amounts of grass and other vegeta-
tion were present in the margins. The arroyo Catalan
Grande is a creek with regions of rapid and slow
flowing water, with loose stones, and gravel at the
bottom; dense vegetation is present in the margins.
Hisonotiis candornbe was collected here within Echi-
nodorus uruguaif crisis, densely growing on some
places.
The environmental variables in the arroyo Cata-
lan Grande were: air temperature 18-20 "^C; water
temperature 1L5-17''C; pH 7.2; conductivity 160-
200 pS/cm. In the arroyo Palomas, the same variables
measured were: air temperature 24 '^C; water tem-
perature 24 °C; pH 77; conductivity 300 pS/cm.
Behaviour in aquarium, Hisonotiis candornbe is re-
ported to behave just as most Hypoptopomatinae
species wich have been known in aquaria for many
years- It is a peacefull species that usually hangs on
Ecbinodorus sp., Sagittaria sp., or similar aquarium
plants. The bright green color of the body vanished
after about a half year changing to greyish brown.
Remarks. Six species of Hisonotiis have been de-
scribed from the southern area of the Rio de La
Plata basin and Lagoa dos Patos system, H. laevior,
H. h'ptochiius, H. mgricauda, R macuHpinnis, H. rin-
gueleti, and H. taimensis.
Hisonotiis candornbe is differentiated from all those
species, excluded H. ringueleti, in having an odontode
free area along the anterior margin of the snout
Also, H. candornbe differs from R taimensis, H. lepto-
chihis, and H. laevior by the lower number of lateral
plates (22-24 vs. 26-31 in H. tannensis and 28 plates
in H. leptochihis and H. laeznar).
Hisonotus candoudx' shares with H. ringueleti the
odontode free area along the anterior margin of the
snout and posterior margin of the pectoral spine
serrated. However, H. candornbe differs from H. rin-
gueleti in having larger pectoral spine serrae distrib-
uted all along the posterior margin. In H. ringueieti
the serrae are smaller and placed on distal two thirds
of posterior margin of pectoral spine, Hisonolns
candornbe has five branched anal-fin rays and males
with smaller flap on pelvic fin whereas H. ringueleti
bears 4 ana I -fin rays and a well developed flap.
