Differs Neblinichthys brevibracchium by a larger dorsal- fin base/SL ratio (24.3-27.0% vs. 18.1-22.8%), a smaller dorsalanal distance/SL ratio (11.9-12.5% vs. 13.7-18.3%), by having the snout tapering shallowly and continuously from eyes to snout tip (vs. snout decreasing in steep arc just anterior to eyes and then flattening in area anterior of nares), and by having the adpressed dorsal fin reaching the anterior preadipose plate (vs. not reaching anterior preadipose plate). Can be diagnosed from Neblinichthys pilosus and Neblinichthys roraima by its odontodes along the edge of the snout of nuptial males longer than those on the top of the snout (vs. odontodes on the front edge of the snout much longer than those on the sides of the snout; nuptial males not known for Neblinichthys brevibracchium or Neblinichthys yaravi); from Neblinichthys roraima by the possession of one to two preadipose plates (vs. more than four) (Ref. 85178).
