Diagnosed uniquely from its congeners by the reduction or absence of azygous plates in front of the nuchal plate. Differs further from its congeners by the presence of a minute lateral cusp in the teeth, wider body, anterior and lateral profile of head rounded, broad distal profile of the paired fins, and lower number of vertebrae (Ref. 56057).

Pareiorhina brachyrhyncha is a species of armored catfish endemic to Brazil where it is known from stony piedmont tributaries of the left bank of Rio Paraíba do Sul, in the State of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil. These streams belong to the Ribeirão Grande (also known as Teteqüera), Guameral, and Piagüi sub-drainages. They drain the southeastern slope of Serra da Mantiqueira, a major mountain range that separates the Paraíba do Sul from the upper Paraná River basin.[2] This species grows to a length of 4.21 centimetres (1.66 in) SL.
