338 Fig. 40. Cichla mirianae, paratype, NRM 46003, adult male, 303 mm SL; Brazil: Mato Grosso: Rio Juruena at ferry crossing, 60 km E of Juína (right side, reversed). Fig. 41. Cichla mirianae, paratype, NRM 46003, adult female, 207 mm SL; Brazil: Mato Grosso: Rio Juruena at ferry crossing, 60 km E of Juína. spots on head, flank or dorsum. Probable female 152 mm SL retains white spots on nape, dorsum and side. Black spots on gill cover. Lateral band indistinct, faded on posterior part of caudal peduncle, and in transition to rows of dark spots of larger specimens. Female 315 mm SL similar, with small light spots scattered on side and densely on side of head, but only limited faint brownish markings representing the horizontal band. Holotype, 236 mm SL (MZUSP 92399, Fig. 42), light brown on dorsum, with small light spots on dorsal side. Spinous dorsal fin brownish with about three rows of light spots on spinous portion, five rows on soft portion, Anterior two lateral blotches dark brown, posterior blotch black, connected by smaller irregular dark brown blotches in narrow band continued short distance posterior to posterior black blotch; all dark markings margined with dull whitish or silvery spots. Otherwise similar to 207 mm SL female. Live colouration. Male, NRM 46003, freshly captured, olivaceous to yellowish on lower part of head and lower flanks. Geographical distribution. Known from the upper Rio Tapajós drainage, in the Juruena and Teles Pires rivers, and from the middle and upper Rio Xingu drainage, in the Fresco, Batovi, Culuene and Suiá-Missu rivers (Fig. 9). Lowe-McConnell (1991), reported Cichla ‘xingu’ as abundant in the Rio Suiá-Missu, and present in Suiá-Missu lakes, and observed in the Córrego do Gato (also a tributary of the Rio Suiá- Missu). The only specimen preserved, however, comes from the Córrego do Gato. Other records <strong>Kullander</strong> & Ferreira: Review of Cichla

Cichla mirianae, paratype, USNM 235641, adult female, 218 mm SL; Brazil: Mato Grosso: Rio Batovi. are from nearby, at the confluence of the Culuene and Sete de Setembro rivers, and without precise locality in the Rio Batovi (shown as Rio Tamitatoala on current maps). The Córrego do Gato is also the type locality of Crenicichla rosemariae (<strong>Kullander</strong>, 1997). Etymology. Named for Mirian Leal-Carvalho, who participated in the collection of part of the type series. Notes. Small specimens of C. mirianae display an indistinct continuous lateral band from snout to caudal peduncle (Fig. 37), and retain this band as adults displaying as irregular blackish blotches arranged in a narrow band connecting the three lateral ocellar blotches and continuing onto the caudal peduncle. This development of the colour pattern is similar to that of C. intermedia, but in Ichthyol. Explor. Freshwaters, Vol. 17, No. 4 339 that species, the juvenile lateral band is wider and more prominent, and whitish spots covering body and head of C. mirianae are absent. Cichla intermedia lacks the prominent lateral ocelli of C. mirianae and has about 6 narrow vertical bars across the side. Adult C. mirianae are similar to C. orinocensis in possession of three prominent ocellated blotches along the side, but juvenile C. orinocensis do not possess a continuous horizontal band along the side. The Cichla material from the upper Rio Tapajós and upper Rio Xingu drainages are referred to the same species. There are no morphometric or meristic differences between the two geographical samples. Whereas all specimens from the Rio Tapajós drainage display prominent ocelli on the side from small sizes, the lateral blotches are less prominent in Xingu specimens, and also large specimens possess distinct white
