Diagnosis. Hasemania crenuchoides is distinguished from its congeners by having a black vertically-elongate humeral spot ( vs . absent, except from H. kalunga , H. nambiquara , H. piatan , and H . uberaba ), ii,8 dorsal-fin rays ( vs . ii,9, except H. hanseni , H. kalunga , H. melanura , H. nana , and H . uberaba ); 11-14 branched anal-fin rays ( vs . 16-19, except H. kalunga , H. melanura , H. nana , H. piatan , and H . uberaba ), infraorbitals four and five ( vs . a single ossification in the position occupied by infraorbitals four and five, except H. hanseni , H. maxillaris , H. melanura , H. nambiquara , and H. nana ), and presence of scales covering the anal-fin base ( vs . absent, except H. hanseni , H. maxillaris , H. melanura , H. nambiquara , H. nana , and H . uberaba ). Additionally, H. crenuchoides differs from H. melanura by having maxillary teeth ( vs . absent); from H. nambiquara by the absence of a broad black band in the midlateral line, from the humeral region to the caudalfin ( vs . presence), and from H. piatan by possessing 19 principal caudal-fin rays ( vs . 18). Description. Morphometric data in Table 2 . Body deep and transversely rounded. Greatest body depth between tip of supraoccipital spine and dorsal-fin origin. Head moderately deep and rounded anteriorly in lateral profile; eye small. Dorsal profile of head distinctly convex from margin of upper lip to region of vertical through anterior nostril, nearly straight from that point to tip of supraoccipital spine. Dorsal profile of body slightly convex from tip of supraoccipital spine to dorsal-fin origin, posteroventrally inclined along dorsal-fin base, straight from terminus of dorsal-fin base to origin of caudal-fin rays. Ventral profile of head and body convex from margin of lower lip to analfin origin, straight and posterodorsally inclined along analfin base, nearly straight in caudal peduncle. Infraorbital series complete. Rhinosphenoid cartilaginous. Jaws equal, mouth terminal. Premaxillary dentition in two rows. Outer row with 3(4), 4*(25) or 5(1) tricuspid teeth and inner row with 5*(30) irregularly placed teeth with 5 cusps. Maxilla with 1(4), 2*(24), 3(4), or 4(1) tricuspid teeth along anterior dentigerous portion of bone. Dentary with single row of 4*(27) or 5(4) larger teeth with 5 cusps anteriorly followed by 5(2) or 6(2) distinctly smaller ones, with 1 or 3 cusps. Dorsal-fin rays ii,8*(38). Anal fin short, iii-iv,11(3), 12*(24), 13(9), or 14(2) rays. Caudal fin forked, lobes rounded and similar in size, with some scales covering basal portion of rays. Principal caudal-fin rays i,8/8,i(1); i,9/8,i(33); or i,9/9/i*(1). Pectoral-fin rays i,9(5), 10(16), 11*(16) or 12(1), its tip falling short of pelvic-fin insertion. Pelvic-fin rays i,5(4), 6(32) or 7*(1). Adipose fin absent. Scales cycloid. Lateral line incomplete. Pored scales: 5(1), 7(1), 9(2), 11(3), 12*(9), 13(7), 14(5), 15(4), 16(4) or 17(2). Longitudinal scale series including perforated scales 20(1), 22(2), 23(5), 24(4), 25(10), 26(7), 27*(5), 28(1), 29(1), 31(1) or 33(1). Horizontal scale rows between lateral line and dorsal-fin origin 4(1) or 5*(37). Horizontal scale rows between lateral line and pelvic-fin origin 4*(38). Scale sheath along basal portion of anal-fin rays with 4*(6), 5(12), 6(12), 7(5), 8(2) or 9(1) scales in single series. Horizontal scale rows around caudal peduncle 13(3), 14*(34) or 15(1). Scales between tip of supraoccipital process and dorsalfin origin 10(6), 11(13), 12(11), 13*(1) or 14(1). Vertebrae 33(2) or 34(2). First gill arch with 6(2) epibranchial, 8(2) ceratobranquial, 1(2) on cartilage between ceratobranchial and epibranchial, and 2(2) hypobranchial gill-rakers. Color in alcohol. Based on recently collected specimens. Preserved specimens with yellowish bodies and darkbrown chromatophores concentrated more dorsally and along posterior margin of scales (mainly in midportion), resulting in slightly reticulated pattern on body; humeral spot irregular, inconspicuous and vertically elongated, midlateral stripe extending from slightly behind humeral spot to middle caudal-fin rays. Fins with chromatophores more concentrated along rays than on membranes ( Figs. 4-5 ). Color in life. Body and head yellowish, more so along ventral portion of head, opercular series and anterior portion of body. Pectoral fin yellowish. Dorsal fin mostly hyaline. Pelvic fin reddish to yellowish. Anal fin red overall but turning yellowish along posteriormost rays. Caudal fin reddish along most superior and inferior rays and yellowish along median ones. Sexual dimorphism. No secondary sexual characters were observed. Distribution. Hasemania crenuchoides seems to be restricted to the streams from the upper rio Paraná and upper rio Tocantins in the Distrito Federal , Brazil . This is the first reference to the species for the rio Tocantins basin. Fig. 4.
