Abstract

Hemigrammus unilineatus (Gill, 1858) (Characidae) is rediscovered in Yasuní National Park, eastern Ecuador, where it has not been reported since 1987. We present a detailed taxonomic description, including measurements and photo-graphs, as well as a distribution map of this species in Ecuador. Based on our new evidence, we confirm the presence of H. unilineatus in the Ecuadorian Amazon.
