dc:description"FIGURE 1. Ituglanis amphipotamus, MZUSP 69393, holotype, 70.3 mm SL; Brazil: São Paulo: Sete Barras, Rio Ipiranga, tributary of Rio Juquiá, Fazenda Brasban, Ribeira de Iguape drainage. Left lateral, dorsal and ventral views. Scale bars = 10 mm.";
dc:description"FIGURE 2. Dorsal view of head. A) Ituglanis amphipotamus, paratype, MZUSP 65753, 66.9 mm SL. Nasal canal of supraorbital line (pores s1 and s2) and antorbital portion of infraorbital line (pores i1 and i3) absent; B) I. proops, MZUSP 79576, 55.1 mm SL. Nasal canal of supraorbital line (pores s1 and s2, black arrows) and antorbital portion of infraorbital line (pores i1 and i3, white arrows) present. Scale bars = 2mm.";
dc:description"FIGURE 3. Left lateral view of head illustrating differences in the opercular and interopercular patches of odontodes. A) Ituglanis amphipotamus, paratype, MZUSP 65753, 66.9 mm SL. The posterior margin of the interopercular patch reaches the base of the opercular patch of odontodes, and the distance between the posterior margin of the interopercular patch of odontodes and the pectoral-fin base is similar to the size of the opercular patch of odontodes. B) I. proops, MZUSP 79576, 58.9 mm SL. The posterior margin of the interopercular patch reaches half length of the opercular patch of odontodes, and the distance between the posterior margin of the interopercular patch of odontodes and the pectoral-fin base, is about one third the size of the opercular patch of odontodes. IPO, interopercular patch of odontodes; OPO, opercular patch of odontodes. Scale bars = 5mm.";
dc:description"FIGURE 4. Lateral view of right suspensorium (lower jaw removed) and opercular series. A) Ituglanis amphipotamus, paratype, MZUSP 65750, 49.2 mm SL, showing the posterior margin of interopercular patch of odontodes in a vertical through the middle of the opercle, not reaching the opercular patch of odontodes. B) Ituglanis proops MZUSP 60255, 57.1 mm mm SL, showing the posterior margin of interopercular patch of odontodes in a vertical through the middle of opercular patch of odontodes. HY, hyomandibula; IO, interopercle; MT, metapterygoid; OP, opercle; PO, preopercle; QU, quadrate. Scale bars = 2mm.";
