Head and body depressed, greatest body depth between level of pectoralfin insertions and dorsal-fin origin. Caudal peduncle deep, robust, compressed posteriorly. Dorsal profile of head and body ascending steeply in convex arc from tip of snout tip to dorsal-fin origin, from there, descending in straight line or gently convex arc sloping gradually down to just posterior to tip of adipose-fin spine, then angled dorsally to caudal fin. Ventral profile flat to slightly convex from tip of snout to pelvic-fin insertions, abdomen flat to slightly concave to pelvic-fin insertions, from there, straight to slightly convex and sloping gently ventrally towards caudal fin.

locality is given as Villavicencio in the Meta drainage, and clearly this is not possible. The town of Sonsón is situated near the watershed divide between the upper Cauca and Magdalena river drainages, and it is feasible that collectors based there could have collected in tributaries of either river without venturing far from town. Our data indicate that the

and USNM specimens mentioned here were most likely collected in the Magdalena basin. Because this species is named for the Cauca River (which flows for most of its length independent of the Magdalena River), but apparently does not occur there, this now creates a very confusing situation.
