has elongated pelvic fins that reach the anus and often pass the anal-fin insertion in males. Dorsal, pelvic and anal fins usually have 8 branched rays. The new species has 36 to 43 scales in the lateral line, 7.0 to 8.5 scales above the lateral line, 13 to 16 circumpeduncular scales, denticulated (vs. smooth) grinding teeth surfaces, 6-5/5 pharyngeal teeth and 15 to 19 gill rakers.

is a small species (largest specimen 104.4 mm in SL), with a less elongated body than many of the other species in the genus. Pre-dorsal profile is deep and convex, and becomes smoother behind the dorsal fin. Females usually have deeper bodies, while males are slender. Mouth is terminal and horseshoe-shaped, with no horny blade on the lower jaw, the upper jaw slightly overlapping the lower. Pharyngeal teeth are arranged in one row, with hooked tips. All teeth are laterally compressed, especially the mostdorsal ones and their length regularly increases from ventral to dorsal, except when there are six (in this case, the most dorsal tooth is shorter). Middle ones (and sometimes the most ventral) have projecting denticulated grinding surfaces. Dorsal ones are spoon-shaped with serrated edges (Fig. 5). The eye is located in the first half of the head and is usually longer than the snout. Dorsal fin is inserted around mid-body, always behind pelvic fin insertion. Caudal fin is moderately forked. Pectoral fins are longer than in other congeners, sometimes overlapping the pelvic fins. Pelvic fins are longer than in other congeners, reaching the anus and sometimes overlapping the anal fin. In males, pelvic fins often pass anal fin insertion while they do not pass the anus in females. Last branched ray in anal fin is often longer in males. Peritoneum is dark and gut is long and coiled. No breeding tubercles have been observed. Specific values for morphometric and meristic characters are given in Tables 1 and 2.

has a greenish coloration with yellow hues above the lateral line, and is whitish below, with metallic reflections. The transition between dorsal and ventral coloration is sometimes very marked. Other times it is less marked, with one or two rows of scales with intermediate coloration on and under the lateral line, especially beyond the dorsal-fin insertion. Rows of melanophores occur along fin rays, on the iris, and on the opercular and ventral regions. Fins usually darker than ventral region. As in the other species of

has the unusual characteristic among European cyprinids of displaying external sexual dimorphism. The function of extended paired fins in males is unknown, but we hypothesize it may play a role during courtship and spawning. Breeding tubercles were not observed in the species even though the mature specimens analyzed were collected in different seasons (winter, spring and summer). This time period should encompass the breeding season, since small (ca. 10 mm total length) specimens were observed in

, for which reproduction should have occurred in the previous month. Since the presence of tubercles should be influenced by physiological conditions that may be transient, larger samples are necessary to confirm their absence. The long coiled gut and dark peritoneum suggest the species has a plant component to the diet (Moyle &amp; Cech 2004).

In other rivers, such as Rio Grande da Pipa and Rio de Alenquer sub-basins, collection was not attempted due to high levels of pollution. The study of museum material confirmed the species was also present in Vala da Azambuja,

The available data suggest the species is present in peripheral habitats or low-order rivers, which are more prone to human alteration. Considering its conservation status (see below) it is highly advisable that fine-scale sampling be undertaken for finer population and distribution assessment.

was found to be locally rare despite considerable sampling effort. Additionally, its limited and fragmented range in an area of high human impact on water resources, through water extraction for agriculture (especially in years of severe drought), presence of exotic species and industrial, domestic and agricultural sources of pollution and land reclamation, pose serious risks to the species survival. The species should be considered Critically Endangered (CR) according to IUCN criteria B1ab(ii,iii,iv)c(iv)+2ab(ii,iii,iv)c(iv) (IUCN, 2001).
