description: <i>Crenicichla jaguarensis</i> Haseman, 1911 <b>Fig. 34</b> Body elongated; greatest body depth contained 4.0 to 5.3, head depth 5.8 to 7.1 and caudal peduncle depth 8.2 to 10.2 times in SL; head length 2.9 to 3.4 and caudal peduncle length 5.4 to 7.6 in SL; snout length 3.1 to 4.7, horizontal orbital diameter 4.2 to 6.0 and least interorbital width 6.7 to 7.8 in HL. Mouth terminal; premaxilla and dentary with many teeth rows. Upper lateral line with 22-26 and lower lateral line with 10-13 pored scales, and longitudinal series with 46-58 scales. Transversal series above upper lateral with 3 or 3½ and below lower lateral line with 6-9 scale rows. Dorsal fin with XIX-XXI,10-12, pectoral fin with 15-17, pelvic fin with I,5 and anal fin with III,8-10 rays (Varella, 2011). Ground color yellowish green; black suborbital stripe; dark-brown longitudinal band, from opercle to caudal peduncle; dark-brown transverse bars on flank; brown spots on lateral line scales. Soft portion of dorsal and anal fins with dark-brown spots, sometimes forming stripes; black rounded blotch on caudal-fin base. <b>Maximum standard length.</b> 196.6 mm. <b>Distribution.</b> Upper rio Paraná basin. <b>Remarks.</b> Some specimens of <i>C. jaguarensis</i> were identified as <i>C. haroldoi</i> by Graça, Pavanelli (2007). Both species occur in the upper rio Paraná floodplain, where <i>C. jaguarensis</i> has been captured since 2004 by the Nupélia staff. <i>Crenicichla jaguarensis</i> can be distinguished by presenting brown spots on the lateral line scales less conspicuous and less evident, 46-58 scales (mode 55) on longitudinal series and 6-9 (mode 8) gill rakers on ceratobranchial 1 (<i>vs.</i> spots on lateral line scales black and conspicuous spots on lateral line, 52-61 scales on longitudinal series (mode 58) on longitudinal series; 6-8 (mode 7) gill rakers on ceratobranchial 1 in <i>C. haroldoi</i>; Varella, 2011).
