Zawadzki, C. H., Penido, I. S. & Lucinda, P. H. F. (2020). Hypostomus krishnamurtii (Teleostei: Loricariidae) a new species from the medium and upper rio Tocantins basin in Brazil. Ichthyological Exploration of Freshwaters, IEF-1153, 1-10. Published 26 June 2020

ABSTRACT
, new species, a pale-spotted species from the medium and upper portions of the rio Tocantins basin is herein described. The new species is distinguished from congeners by a combination of characters: body with pale spots or vermiculations on darker background, 60-83 teeth on each mandibular row, one plate posteriorly bordering supraoccipital and moderate keels with odontodes.
"...pale spots or vermiculations on darker background"... Does anyone know if this is an existing L or LDA number? Not very many match this description, but we don't have photos for all in order to confirm, and the full article is behind a paywall.

Thanks, Eric
