Etymology: Nemadoras: Greek, nema, -atos = filament + Greek, dora = skin (Ref. 45335); cristinae: Named for Maria Cristina Sabaj Pérez, teacher at Friends' Central School, Wynnewood, Pennsylvania, for her contributions to the collection of the type series and to the well-being of the senior co-author, videlicet course corrections over paths polished and rough..

Short description
Morfologia | Morfometria
Spine dorsali (totale): 2; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 6. Nemadoras cristinae differs from all congeners by the possession of the following characters: 3-9 premaxillary teeth in approximately two rows in juveniles and adults; outermost teeth weakly spatulate and innermost more acicular (vs. premaxillary edentulous in adults of all congeners and limited to 1-6 acicular teeth in juveniles of N. elongatus, N. humeralis, N. leporhinus and N. ternetzi); and mental barbels with extremely elongate (filiform) papillae, length of longest about 4-7 times its width at base (vs. papillae shorter, length of longest <3 times its width at base). It can be further differentiated from very similar species N. leporhinus, by having shaft and primary fimbriae of maxillary barbel smooth (vs. outer margin of shaft and margins of primary fimbriae with distinct secondary fimbriae) (Ref. 96153).
Occurs in the main channels of whitewater (sediment rich) rivers. Collected using gill nets, bottom trawls to depths of 0.6-13.9 m, and long floating nets pulled by canoe in the main channels of large rivers. Feeds on larval insects (Ref. 96153).
