Here's the abstract:

"Ituglanis nebulosus is described from the Aprouague basin in French Guiana. It differs from all other species of Ituglanis by a color pattern composed of large, round spots irregularly distributed on body and not coalesced into longitudinal stripes. It is also diagnosable from most congeners by the round caudal fin and the reduced number of vertebrae (35 or 36). The new species shares all synapomorphies so far proposed for the genus Ituglanis, as well as other characteristics supporting the placement of the genus within trichomycterids."
