Abstract
Jupiaba poekotero, new species, is described from the Rio Tiquie´, a tributary of the Rio Uaupe´s, in the upper Rio Negro system, estado do Amazonas, Brazil. It is
distinguished from its congeners by the presence of an unpigmented, horizontallyoriented, roughly oval area on the proximal portion of the caudal-fin lobes, bordered posteriorly by dark pigmentation. Comments on the putative relationships of the new species are provided.
