Do you know where exactly it was caught?

Marne,
Which river? I would say that it looks like it belongs to the genus Ituglanis.
Evers and Seidel (Wels Atlas I) show a photo of I. parahybae, but the pattern in their photo looks different. The pattern consists of less spots on the body and the spots are bigger.

the owner's of the photos comment:

Friends! Before everything, excuse for my horrible English.
That fish went I diffuse in a close river my city, it is in the southeast area of Brazil. The one that more finds interesting, it is that he is a lot similar to Misgurnus anguillicaudatus, however, that species is original of Asia.

I am leaning towards I. proops.

Eremophilus mutisiiis found only in Colombia not Brazil.

Anyway, the body is too stout to be E. mutisii.
