Etymology: Hypostomus: Greek, hypo = under + Greek, stoma = mouth (Ref. 45335);  hemicochliodon: From the Latin hemi (half), and the Latin coclea (coch-) (spoon), and the Greek odon (tooth), in reference to the fact that the teeth are about half as spoon-shaped as those of wood-specializing members of the Hypostomus cochliodon group..

Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

Distinguished from all other members of Hypostomus cochliodon group except H. sculpodon by having a medium-sized buccal papilla, intermediately developed teeth and a large patch of odontodes on the opercle. Differs from H. sculpodon by its dark brown color with closely spaced spots, by having a greater dorsal-anal length to anal-fin length ratio (average=111.1%, 92.5-132.6% vs. average=79.2%, 69.6-89.7%) and almost completely by having a larger interorbital width/HL ratio (average=49.9, 44.1-55.6% vs. average=51.4%, 38.5-45.4%) (Ref. 50589).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01259 (0.00681 - 0.02326), b=2.99 (2.84 - 3.14), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Resiliencia (Ref. 120179):  Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (26 of 100).
