Roberts, T. R. (2021). Glyptothorax pedunculatus, a New Species of Sumatran Sisorid Catfish with Slender Caudal Peduncle and Simple Thoracic Adhesive Organ. Aqua, 27(1): 1-4.

Abstract
new species is described from the Musi River basin in central Sumatra. It differs from all other species in the genus by its more slender caudal peduncle and by its thoracic adhesive organ lacking a median groove and with nearly straight striae. Ten species of Glyptothorax are now known from Sumatra.
UPDATE: This was not a valid description. See here for reference: Unavailable species (most published in aqua, International Journal of Ichthyology)
