Hypostomus salgadae is a disputed species of catfish in the family Loricariidae that may be synonymous with the species Hypostomus carvalhoi. It is native to South America, where it occurs in the Jaguaribe River basin in Brazil.

The species reaches 40 cm in standard length and is believed to be a facultative air-breather. Although originally described as a member of Chaetostomus by Albert Günther in 1867, it has subsequently been classified within Hypostomus, the now-invalid genus Plecostomus, and Hemiancistrus. A 2015 review conducted by Jonathan W. Armbruster, David C. Werneke, and Milton Tan recognized the species within Hypostomus, although sources such as FishBase, WoRMS and ITIS still consider it a member of Hemiancistrus.
Ancistomus micrommatos is a species of catfish in the family Loricariidae. It is a freshwater fish native to South America, where it is known only from the Tocantins River basin in Brazil. The species reaches 11.9 cm in standard length. Although originally described as a species of Hemiancistrus in 2003, a 2015 review conducted by Jonathan W. Armbruster, David C. Werneke, and Milton Tan listed the species as valid within Ancistomus. The same review also reported that no characteristics were found to separate A. micrommatos from its congeners A. spilomma and A. spinosissimus, indicating that the three may actually all be the same species.
Ancistomus spinosissimus is a species of catfish in the family Loricariidae. It is a freshwater fish native to South America, where it is known only from the upper and middle Tocantins River basin in Brazil. The species reaches 12.7 cm in standard length. Although originally described as a species of Hemiancistrus in 2003, a 2015 review conducted by Jonathan W. Armbruster, David C. Werneke, and Milton Tan listed the species as valid within Ancistomus. The same review also reported that no characteristics were found to separate A. spinosissimus from its congeners A. micrommatos and A. spilomma, indicating that the three may actually all be the same species.
