| Etymology | The generic epithet "panaque" is a Venezuelan common name for this fish. |
| Species Information | |
| Identification | The genus Panaque is identified by the teeth, which are spoon-shaped. This means that the teeth are noticeably wider at the tip than at the base. Other loricariidae have teeth that are similar width all the way from one end to the other. A second distinguishing feature is the lack of a buccal papilla, which is a "flap of skin" on the inside of the mouth. See pictures in this PDF on Pterygoplichthys. Both light and dark stripes on the body are much thinner than other Panaque armbrusteri types. |
