Taxonomic summary: Gosline (1947); Isbrücker (1979b, 1980, 1992a, 2001); Reis et al. (2003); Ferraris (2003b, Neoplecostominae; 2003c, Loricariinae ); Fisch-Muller (2003, Ancistrinae ); Schaefer (2003c, Hypoptopomatinae ); Weber (2003, Hypostominae ).
Phylogeny: Boeseman (1971); Schaefer (1987, 1998); Montoya-Burgos et al. (1997, 1998, 2002, molecular phylogeny); Armbruster (1998a, Rhinelepis group); Schaefer (1991, Hypoptopomatinae ); Armbruster (2004a, Ancistrinae and Hypostominae ); Gauger & Buckup (2005, Otothyrini).
Review: Aquino (1997, Hypoptopomatinae of Argentina), Weber et al. (1992, Paraguay).
Remarks: The taxonomy of this some portions of this family is very unsettled at this time. Monophyly of the family appears to be strongly supported, except, possibly, for the inclusion of Lithogenes (see Schaefer, 2003d, and Armbruster, 2004a for comments). Two subfamilies, Loricariinae and Hypoptopomatinae , as used in Reis et al. (2003), appear to be generally regarded as monophyletic, but the monophyly and composition of the other subfamilies in Reis et al. (2003) are currently being examined and likely to be altered substantially in the future (see, for example, Armbruster, 2004a). Isbrücker & Nijssen (1992b) summarized the extent of sexual dimorphism in the family; Muller & Weber (1992) examined the possible taxonomic value of dental characteristics.
