Morphometric data are given in Table 1 (except for NMW 50219).</p><p>According to Loboda &amp; Carvalho (2013) and the specimens described here, P. amandae is distinguished from its congeners by the dorsal background predominantly dark gray or dark brown, ocelli, when present, composed of two colors with a whitish center surrounded by a gray, dark gray or black ring, ventral disc coloration predominantly gray or dark gray, greater spiracular length with mean around 10% DW, tail relatively long (mean of distance between cloaca and tip around 82% DW) and slender (width in basis around 11% DW), tail rows of pointed spines generally double.</p><p>As reported for P. motoro (Loboda, 2010), some specimens of P. amandae from the Amazon basin (fig. 3) possess tubercles (pointed spines modified, see Brito &amp; Deynat, 2004) in the rows of pointed spines on the tail and also on the margins of the disc.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/980287DBFFB0DC74FF31F10EFC85FD25	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Morphometric data are given in Table 2.</p><p>As stated by Loboda &amp; Carvalho (2013), some specimens of P. pantanensis show a very similar dorsal coloration as does P. motoro, but this species can be distinguished from other congeners by possessing a light brown or light gray dorsal coloration with bicolored ocelli and vermiculated markings with beige, yellow, or orange central area surrounded by a gray or dark gray contour, a clearly demarcated gray color area in the anterocentral ventral disc (which in some specimens may form a strip above the first pair of gill slits), tail relatively smaller (mean of distance between cloaca and tip around 73% DW) and broader (width in basis around 13% DW), presence of star-shaped dermal denticles only in the central area of dorsal disc, two or three rows of slender and curved pointed spines on the tail.</p><p>Male adult specimen AMNH 59875 from the Upper Amazon basin possess a very peculiar dorsal ocelli pattern in the central area of disc (fig. 5) as a set of small ocelli fused in a big one, and very similar with the pattern of specimens of this species from the Paraná-Paraguay basin shown by Loboda &amp; Carvalho (2013, fig. 31). The AMNH 59875 specimens also present tubercles in the rows of the tail and on the margins of the disc.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/980287DBFFB0DC74FF31F292FD9EFB11	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
