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 Шаблон:Convert 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)
