Trachelyopterus lucenai (Bertoletti, Pezzi da Silva & Pereira, 1995)


Trachelyopterus lucenai is a freshwater member of the family Auchenipteridae that is native to Brazil. It has only been found in the JacuĂ­ River basin in Rio Grande do Sul. Like many Siluriformes it is demersal, which is one of the reasons it has only been recently identified.[2]
