Etymology: Andromakhe: Named for Áνδρομάχη, Andromakhe (‘battle of men’), a character in Greek mythology, she is the wife of Hector, Prince of Troy, and, in Homer’s epic poem Iliad, the mother of Ἀστυάναξ, Astyanax (‘city protector’); tupi: The specific name tupi honors aborigines that lives in northern Argentina.
Eponymy: Andromakhe (or Andromache) is a character in Greek mythology: the wife of Hector, Prince of Troy, and the mother of Astyanax. The name was chosen when the authors placed several species formerly in the genus Astyanax into this new genus. The Tupi are a tribe of people in the type locality of Chapada, Brazil.

Descripción breve
Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría
Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 13; Vértebra: 35. Differs from other species of the genus by the combination of the following characters: long pectoral fins always surpassing pelvic-fin origin; anal fin origin at level of a vertical through fifth or sixth dorsal fin rays; one supraopercular and two humeral spots on flanks; two or three maxillary teeth; 35-38 perforated scales in the lateral series; and 24-27 branched anal fin rays. Distinguishes further from most of its congeners by having deep body (36.9-42.6% SL); large eye (10.2-11.9% SL); maxillary length, 100.0-136.6% interorbital width); and presence of 24-25 gill rakers on first branchial arch (Ref. 55798).
