Isorineloricaria Isbrücker, 1980 |
Isorineloricaria is a genus of catfish in the family Loricariidae from northwestern South America. [1] [2] They live in rivers and streams, typically with slow to moderately running water, [3] in the Orinoco, Maracaibo, Magdalena and Guayas basins (one species in each basin). [2] The largest species in the genus reaches up to 52 cm (20 in) in standard length. [3]
Taxonomy
The taxonomy of this genus has been a matter of dispute, all having been placed in Hypostomus in the past, and some occasionally placed in Squaliforma. Squaliforma is now regarded as a synonym of Aphanotorulus, but species west of the Andes have been moved to Isorineloricaria. [2]
There are currently 4 recognized species in this genus: [2]
- Isorineloricaria acuarius C. K. Ray & Armbruster, 2016
- Isorineloricaria spinosissima ( Steindachner, 1880) (Zucchini catfish)
- Isorineloricaria tenuicauda ( Steindachner, 1878)
- Isorineloricaria villarsi ( Lütken, 1874)
