Pereira, L.H.A., Bialetzki, A. and Bonecker, A.C.T. 2017. Larval and juvenile development of Tatia intermedia (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae). J. Fish Biol., 90, 1098–1103. doi:10.1111/jfb.13221

Pereira et al. wrote:ABSTRACT
This study describes the morphology, morphometry and meristic characters of larval and juvenile collected in the middle Tocantins River and some of its tributaries. Six larvae of T. intermedia were examined and they have a moderately elongate body, head slightly dorso-ventrally depressed with a convex snout, small and round eyes and a subterminal mouth. In five juvenile stages observed, the head and eye are relatively smaller than in the larval stage and the snout remains convex and mouth becomes terminal.
