Leporinus torrenticola differs from Hypomasticus julii, H. pachycheilus, Leporinus gomesi, L. granti, L. nijsseni, and L. santosi, by possessing three teeth on premaxilla (vs. four), and subinferior mouth (vs. inferior in Hypomasticus julii and H. pachycheilus, and terminal in Leporinus gomesi, L. granti, L. nijsseni, and L. santosi); and from H. megalepis by having 37-40 lateral-line scales (vs. 33 -35), and from L. multimaculatus by having 16 scale rows around caudal peduncle (vs. 12) (Ref. 117595).Description: Dorsal-fin rays ii,10; anal-fin rays ii,8; pectoral-fin rays i,13-16; pelvic-fin rays i,8 (Ref. 117595).
