Diagnosis. Corydoras areio can be distinguished from its congeners, except for the species within lineage 1 sensu Alexandrou et al. (2011), by the presence of the following features: temporal sensory canal in sphenotic with two pores anteriorly to the branch that gives rise to infraorbital canal (vs. with a single pore), upper tooth plate of branchial arch with three or four series of teeth (vs. two series of teeth), area at the corner of the mouth, ventral to the maxillary barbel, with a fleshy flap (vs. fleshy flap absent). Corydoras areio can be distinguished from the species belonging to the lineage 1, except for C. acutus Cope, 1872, C. cervinus Rössel, 1962, C. maculifer Nijssen, Isbrücker, 1971, C. oxyrhynchus Nijssen, Isbrücker, 1967, C. saramaccensis Nijssen, 1970, C. vittatus Nijssen, 1971 and C. zawadzkii Tencatt & Ohara, 2016, by the absence of large patches of black pigmentation on the body (vs. presence in the remaining congeners). Corydoras areio is diagnosed from C. acutus, C. cervinus, C. maculifer, C. vittatus and C. zawadzkii by the presence of blotches on flanks not aligned in longitudinal series (vs. aligned in longitudinal series, sometimes forming continuous bands). Corydoras areio can still be distinguished from C. vittatus plus C. saramaccensis by the absence of a dark brown or black stripe transversally crossing the eye (vs. presence of such stripe, forming the typical mask-like blotch). Corydoras areio also differs from C. cervinus by having infraorbital 2 with relatively wider posterior laminar expansion (vs. infraorbital 2 with relatively narrower posterior laminar expansion). Finally, C. areio is diagnosed from C. oxyrhynchus by the absence of conspicuous concentration of dark brown or black chromatophores on anterior portion of dorsal fin, especially close to dorsal-fin spine insertion (vs. presence of such pattern).

Sexual dimorphism. The presence of lanceolate genital papilla is a common feature in males of all Corydoradinae species (see Nijssen, Isbrücker, 1980b; Britto, 2003). Additionally, the males present a fibrous tissue on pectoral spine, which is generally covered by hypertrophied odontodes, and also a segmented filament on the tip of the spine, as illustrated for C. solox Nijssen & Isbrücker, 1983 (see Nijssen, Isbrücker, 1983:81, fig. 10g).
Geographical distribution. Corydoras areio is known from the rio Piquiri (rio Itiquira) and the ribeirão Parnaíba, tributaries of the rio São Lourenço basin, State of Mato Grosso, and also from the rio Negro (rio Taboco) and rio Taquari basins, State of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil (Fig. 5).
Ecological notes. In the rio Taboco and rio Taquari basins, Corydoras areio was generally found inhabiting small streams (Fig. 6), mainly associated with deep, lentic habitats during the day, ranging from about 50 cm to 1 m depth, with substrate predominantly composed of sand. During day, the species displays a more active behavior, swimming away at the sign of any movement, even from outside of the water. On the other hand, the species can be easily observed and captured in shallow beaches of streams (about 10 cm depth) during the night, where they stay nearly motionless. At the beaches of the ribeirão dos Veados (Fig. 6A), the species was observed in syntopy with C. polystictus and Corydoras aff. polystictus. The species was rarely captured in the main channel of the rio Taboco (Fig. 6B), where it is also associated with the sandy substrate of the river banks. In the rio Taboco basin, C. areio occurred in syntopy with Corydoras aff. aeneus (Gill, 1858). In most collecting sites, C. areio specimens were observed burying themselves in the sandy substrate, especially during capture attempts. Another interesting feature of C. areio observed in natural habitat is the presence of translucid trunk in smaller specimens (up to 30.0 mm SL), which possibly enhances their camouflage on sand. Additionally, it was possible to observe signs of severe deforestation in the region of both river basins, basically for agricultural and cattle raising purposes, which reflects the high levels of siltation in most of the local water bodies (LFCT pers. obs.).
Remarks. An interesting point concerning Corydoras areio is its exact type-locality, since Knaack (2000) did not provide an exact locality, pointing that the species was captured in streams of the “Córr.” (surely an abbreviation for córrego) Areio, in the vicinity of Vila Nova, east of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso State, Brazil. According to Knaack (2000: 47–48), C. areio seems to be found in two streams that cross the road MT-373, one of them in the kilometer 8.5 and the other one in the kilometer 13.5, near the city of Poxoréo. Searches for “Vila Nova” in Mato Grosso only resulted in a small town at the margins of the rio das Garças, upper rio Araguaia basin, which seems unlikely to be related to the C. areio type-locality. Even though it was not possible to track these exact points, the córrego Areia basin, tributary from the rio Poxoréo, itself a tributary from rio Vermelho, where the rio São Lourenço flows seems the most plausible potential area for the type-locality, especially considering that the córrego Areia itself and some of its tributaries cross the road MT-373 close to the city of Poxoréo (in a range of about 10 kilometers). In a recent collecting trip led by LFCT, the córrego Areia was sampled where it crosses the road MT-130, less than 1 km from the urban area of Poxoréo, where no specimens of C. areio were captured. Despite this, considering the data provided by Knaack (2000), it seems reasonable to consider the córrego Areia drainage around Poxoréo (15°50’41”S 54°26’44”W) as the type-locality of C. areio.
Another curious subject regarding the C. areio original description refers to the institution where the holotype and nine paratypes were deposited, which was not mentioned in detail, having the catalogue number as the only available information, BZM 33113 and BZM 33136, respectively. A search in the databases available in Sabaj (2019) and Fricke, Eschmeyer (2020) revealed no match for the acronym “ BZM ”. However, Knaack himself (1966: 364) provided further information on “ BZM ” as follows: “Das Material, welches der Neubeschreibung von Eigenmann und Ward [1907] zu Grunde lag, wurde von Anisits in Paraguay eigesammelt und davon Paratypen auch dem Berliner Zoologischen Museum überlassen (Asuncion, Pilcomayo, BZM Nr. 17249; Matto Grosso, Corumba, BZM Nr. 17258)” (= The material on which the new description by Eigenmann, Ward (in Eigenmann et al., 1907) was based was collected by Anisits in Paraguay, and the paratypes were also given to the Berlin Zoological Museum (Asunción, Pilcomayo, BZM 17249; Mato Grosso, Corumbá, BZM 17258)). Therefore, it seems reasonable to conclude that Knaack created “ BZM ” for “Berliner Zoologischen Museum”, not knowing that the “Zoologischen Museum” in Berlin (a former name of the Museum für Naturkunde) was recognized by the acronym “ ZMB ” (see Sabaj, 2019).
Although Knaack (2000:47) planned to send the type series of C. areio to a fish collection in São Paulo (possibly MZUSP): “Es ist vorgesehen den Holotyp und weiteres Typenmaterial dem Museum Sao Paulo zu übergeben” (= It is planned to hand over the holotype and other type material to the São Paulo Museum), the holotype and paratypes were repatriated in 2001 through their deposit at the MCP, in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, under the catalog numbers MCP 28675 and MCP 28676, respectively. Additionally, four topotypes were also donated by the ZMB (MCP 28677) (Carlos A. S. Lucena, 2020, pers. comm.).
