Leporinus multimaculatus differs from Hypomasticus julii, H. pachycheilus, Leporinus gomesi, L. granti, L. nijsseni, and L. santosi, by having three teeth on premaxilla (vs. four), and subinferior mouth (vs. inferior in Hypomasticus julii and H. pachycheilus, and terminal in Leporinus gomesi, L. granti, L. nijsseni, and L. santosi); and from H. megalepis and L. torrenticola by possessing 12 scale rows around caudal peduncle (vs. 16) (Ref. 117595).Description: Dorsal-fin rays ii,10; anal-fin rays ii,8; pectoral-fin rays i,14-17; pelvic-fin rays i,8 (Ref. 117595) Birindelli, J.O., T.F.
