Discreet, but distinct, vertical dark bar over base of caudal-fin rays from dorsal to ventral fold margins, distinctly thicker and darker on the central rays. <b>Geographic distribution.</b> <i>Ituglanis ina</i> is known from tributaries of rio Parauapebas,a tributary of the rio Itacaiúnas, which is in turn a tributary of the right bank of the rio Tocantins, Serra dos Carajás, State of Pará, Brazil (Fig. 4). <b>Etymology.</b> The specific epithet “ <i>ina</i> ” is in reference to the term “inã”, which means person, a self-designation of the Karajás (Carajás) indigenous people that inhabit the Serra dos Carajás. Macro-Gê linguistic trunk, Carajás linguistic family.A noun in apposition. <b>Comparative material.</b> <i>Bullockia maldonadoi</i>: MZUSP 36958, 1 c&amp;s, 45.5 mm SL, <b>Chile</b>, Coigüe, rio Bio Bio. <i>Copionodon pecten</i>: MZUSP 48962, 4 + 3 c&amp;s, 40.5-51.5 mm SL, <b>Brazil</b>, Bahia, Lençois, rio Lençois, tributary of rio Paraguaçu. <i>Glaphyropoma rodriguesi</i>: MZUSP 42466, 1 c&amp;s, 51 mm SL, paratype, Brazil, Bahia, Mucujê, rio Mucujê. <i>Hatcheria macraei</i>, MZUSP 35687, 1, 67.4 mm SL, 2 disarticulated c&amp;s, <b>Argentina</b>, Córdoba, Pilar, río Segundo. <i>Ituglanis amazonicus</i>: MPEG 3345, 1 c&amp;s, 42.0 mm SL, <b>Brazil</b>, Pará, Parauapebas, igarapé do Pojuca, rio Itacaiúnas, rio Tocantins. <i>Ituglanis eichorniarum</i>: MNRJ 780 A, 33.1 mm SL, Lectotype of <i>Trichomycterus eichorniarum</i> Miranda Ribeiro, 1912, <b>Brazil</b>, Mato Grosso, Cáceres, rio Paraguai.
