Etymology: Megalancistrus: Greek, megas, megalos = great + Greek, agkistron = hook (Ref. 45335).
More on author: Peters.
Issue
New combination. After examination of the holotype of Pterygoplichthys (Ancistrus) parananus, it is clearly established that Chaetostoma aculeatus belong to the same species and therefore is a junior synonym of this species. Redescription in Pignalberi (1970: 379).
