Cordylancistrus platyrhynchus

The Cordylancistrus platyrhynchus lives in the demersal, freshwater environment.

Armbruster (1997) determines that Cordylancistrus platyrhynchus is actually a member of Chaetostoma sensu stricto. Because of this, the only good characteristic separating Chaetostoma from Cordylancistrus, Dolichancistrus, and Leptoancistrus (the lack of plates on the tip of the snout) is no longer valid. More
