Phylogenetic relationships of the species of Acestridium Haseman, 1911 (Siluriformes: Loricariidae)

A phylogeny of the species of the loricariid genus Acestridium and relevant outgroups is presented based on a parsimony analysis of 52 unweighted and unordered morphological characters. Acestridium is diagnosed as monophyletic based on the possession of the 17 exclusive synapomorphies. Two primary t...
