Relevant Information:

A new species assigned to the genus Trichomycterus (2017) but now moved into the new genus of Cambeva. Habitat: From the area of the waterfalls of Tabay stream, Paraná River basin, Misiones, Argentina. Description: Cambeva ytororo is distinguished from all other species in the genus by the presence of 31–35 dorsal procurrent caudal-fin rays and the combination of some external characters such as: colouration, number of pectoral–fin rays and pores of the laterosensory canals. The new taxon belongs to a presumably monophyletic group of species composed of T. crassicaudatus, T. igobi, and T. stawiarski based on the presence of 24 or more thickly ossified and rigid procurrent caudal-fin rays with a slender distal tip extending along the tips of at least ten neural spines. (Terán, G.E., J. Ferrer, M. Benitez, F. Alonso, G. Aguilera & J.M. Mirande 2017). Remarks: Still found on some online sources as Trichomycterus ytororo.
