The types of many nominal glyptosternine species are deposited in Indian and Chinese institutions, and are usually fairly inaccessible to researchers. This produces obstacles to easy comparison when new species of glyptosternines are described. The problem is also exacerbated by the limited availability of non-type material for comparison in institutions outside of China and India. Glyptosternine catfishes live in habitats that are difficult for researchers to gain access to and are difficult to capture using conventional sampling methods; these are the primary reasons for the paucity of (non-type) comparative material. Furthermore, much of this comparative material actually consists of material exchanged from Indian or Chinese institutions (for example, all the paratypes of

had been exchanged from the Kunming Institute of Zoology in Yunnan, China). However, these obstacles can be overcome and adequate comparisons are possible, at least for the species described within the last 50 years, by using the data from the original descriptions. It is with this limitation in mind that the two species described herein are compared with other congeners.
