Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 10-11; Raggi anali molli: 20 - 25; Vertebre: 31 - 33. Astyanax tamiahua is distinguished from other congeners in Veracruz and northern Mexico by the following characters: body deeper, mean 35.9% SL (vs. mean 33.9% SL in A. argentatus); head length, more than 26% SL (vs. 26% or less in A. acatlanensis, A. argentatus and A. rioverde); in lateral view, supraoccipital slightly concave (vs. angled in A. finitimus); infraorbital II, triangular with an angled base (vs. with a long convex base in A. argentatus and A. mexicanus); first dorsal pterygiophore, rostral edge angled (vs. curved in A. argentatus and A. mexicanus) (Ref. 118583).
