Redescrição de Genidens barbus (Lacépède, 1803) e Genidens machadoi (Miranda-Ribeiro, 1918), Bagres Marinhos (Siluriformes, Ariidae) do Atlântico Sul Ocidental
Variation in the pattern of the vomero-palatine tooth patches of Genidens barbus and Genidens machadoi is reviewed and the species redescribed based on the analysis of 46 morphological characters. Genidens machadoi can be distinguished from Genidens barbus by: the notched lateral margin of the sphenotic (vs. lateral margin of the sphenotic straight); the cephalic shield narrowest in the sphenotic (vs. cephalic shield narrowest in the frontal); distance between the lateral margin of the cephalic shield, at narrowest portion, and the posterior margin of the orbit 0.681.0 of the smallest width of the cephalic shield (vs. 1.21.7); width of the posterior extremity of the supra-occipital process 2.03.4 of the length of the supra-occipital process (vs. 3.34.7); one or two groups of tooth patches on roof of mouth, anterior patch small and round, posterior patch oval, sometimes confluent or fused with the front group (vs. patches a with horseshoe shape, patches totally fused or divided in confluent groups, always with a posterior projection); longest length of the tooth patches 3.24.9 of the height of the head (vs. 1.93.4); granulation on cephalic shield coarse and irregularly distributed (vs. smooth and distributed in regular series).A variação no padrão das placas de dentes vômero-palatinas de Genidens barbus e Genidens machadoi é revista e as espécies redescritas com base na análise de 46 caracteres morfológicos. Genidens machadoi pode ser diferenciada de Genidens barbus pela: margem lateral do esfenótico recortada (vs. margem lateral do esfenótico retilínea); escudo cefálico mais estreito na região dos esfenóticos (vs. escudo cefálico mais estreito na região dos frontais); distância entre a margem lateral do escudo cefálico, na porção mais estreita, e a margem posterior da órbita cabendo 0,681,0 na menor largura do escudo cefálico (vs. 1,21,7); menor largura do processo occipital, na porção posterior, cabendo 2,03,4 no comprimento do processo occipital (vs. 3,34,7); um ou dois pares de placas de dentes na região do palato, par anterior arredondado e pequeno, par posterior ovalado às vezes confluente ou fusionado com o par anterior (vs. placas de dentes na região do palato formando um conjunto com aspecto de uma ferradura, as placas totalmente fusionadas ou confluentes e distintas, mas sempre com uma projeção posterior); maior comprimento das placas de dentes cabendo 3,24,9 na altura da cabeça (vs. 1,93,4); granulação no escudo cefálico espessa e irregularmente distribuída (vs. fina e distribuída em série regulares)

A NEW SPECIES OF CATHOROPS (SILURIFORMES; ARIIDAE) FROM MESOAMERICA, WITH REDESCRIPTION OF FOUR SPECIES FROM THE EASTERN PACIFIC
The great similarities in the external morphologies and the lack of knowledge on ontogenetic and intersexual differences of species in the ariid genus Cathorops Jordan and Gilbert, 1882, has led to an abundance of misidentifications, causing great nomenclatural instability. Accordingly, the taxonomic statuses of the Cathorops species described from Eastern Pacific have remained controversial in the literature, even in recent studies. Here, we describe Cathorops raredonae, a new species from Mesoamerica (Mexico to El Salvador) and redescribe (in Cathorops) Tachysurus liropus Bristol, 1897, and Arius taylori Hildebrand, 1925, often listed as junior synonyms of Cathorops fuerthii (Steindachner, 1877) and Cathorops steindachneri (Gilbert and Starks, 1904), respectively, or treated as species inquirendae in Cathorops. We also redescribe and redefine the circumscriptions of C. fuerthii and C. steindachneri. Finally, we summarize current statuses of nominal species of Cathorops from the Eastern Pacific and provide an artificial key to identify the valid Pacific species.Fundacao de Amparo Pesquisa do estado de Sao Paulo (FAPESP)[03/04509-3]Fundacao de Amparo Pesquisa do Estado de Sao Paulo (FAPESP)Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cientifico e Tecnologico of the Brazilian Federal Government (CNPq)[152782/2007-9]Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cientifico e Tecnologico of the Brazilian Federal Government (CNPq)All Catfish Species InventoryAll Catfish Species Inventory[DEB-0315963]Universidad Nacional de Colombia sede CaribeUniversidad Nacional de Colombia sede Carib
