Rineloricaria

Rineloricaria longicauda

Rineloricaria is a genus of catfish family of armored catfish ( Loricariidae ) and is considered here as a primitive group in the subfamily Loricariinae. There are over 60 species that are common in many parts of South America. For all members of the genus, the upper and lower lip are equally developed and staffed with nodules. The barbels are only slightly longer than the eye diameter. Typical are the long Schwanzfilamente that have earned them the English common name Whiptail catfishes.
