Rineloricaria magdalenae[1] is a species of catfish in the family Loricariidae. It is native to South America, where it occurs in the basins of the Sinú River, the Magdalena River, and possibly the Catatumbo River in Colombia and Venezuela. It is typically found in slow-flowing rivers, as well as marshes and swamps. The species reaches 20 cm (7.9 inches) in length and is believed to be a facultative air-breather.[2]
