SpeciesThere are currently two recognized species in this genus:[1]
Appearance and anatomyBrochiloricaria is morphologically very similar to Loricaria and can be distinguished from the latter only by its teeth characteristics; in Brochiloricaria, the teeth are very long and of equal size on both jaws, while in Loricaria the premaxillary teeth are almost two times longer than dentary teeth.[2] However, dentition may not be a reliable characteristic to differentiate to genera, so Brochiloricaria may actually be a synonym of Loricaria.[2]Both species of Brochiloricaria reach almost 30 centimetres (12 in) in length.[1] EcologyBrochiloricaria is an abdomino-lip brooder.[2]References1. ^1 {{FishBase genus | genus = Brochiloricaria| month = December | year = 2011}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q3753554}}{{Loricariidae-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{cite journal|url=http://www.mapress.com/zootaxa/2007f/zt01462p040.pdf|title=The genera of the Neotropical armored catfish subfamily Loricariinae (Siluriformes: Loricariidae): a practical key and synopsis|first=Raphael|last=Covain|author2=Fisch-Muller, Sonia|journal=Zootaxa|volume=1462|pages=1–40|year=2007|format=PDF}} 8 : Loricariini|Fish of South America|Fish of Argentina|Fauna of Brazil|Catfish genera|Taxa named by Isaäc J.
