Etymology: Leporinus: Latin, lepus, leporis = rabbit (Ref. 45335); venerei: Named for Paulo Cesar Venere, for collecting the first known specimens of this species.
Eponymy: Dr Paulo César Venere is a Brazilian biologist and ichthyologist who graduated with a bachelor’s degree (1986), a master’s (1991) and defended his doctorate in genetics and evolution (1998), all from the Federal University of São Carlos. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Breve descrizione
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 13 - 14; Raggi anali molli: 11 - 12; Vertebre: 34 - 35. Can be differentiated from other members of the genus Leporinus by possessing 4 teeth on the premaxilla and 3 teeth on the dentary yielding the dental formula 4/3. Distinguished also from other species by the following combinations of non-unique characters: lateral line with 36-37 pored scales; transverse series of scales from origin of dorsal fin to lateral line 4; scales from lateral line to base of pelvic fin 4.5-5; series of scales around caudal peduncle 16; lateral line with 3 round dark blotches, the first at vertical through dorsal fin, the second at vertical through adipose-fin origin and the third at base of caudal peduncle (the latter two blotches, particularly the last one, usually small or inconspicuous) (Ref. 75002).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Adults inhabit lentic environments such as lagoons or borrow pits (Ref. 75002). Distinct pairs breed on densely grown weedy places (Ref. 205).
