Agamyxis is a genus of thorny catfishes.
There are currently two recognized species in this genus:[1]
This genus is found in tropical South America.
Both species reach about 15 centimetres (6 in) SL.[1] These species both appear very similar; A. albomaculatus might be slimmer, have more spots and a different pattern on its caudal fin.[2]
These catfish are able to make sounds by grinding their pectoral fin bones against their shoulder bones.[2] They can live for 17 years.[2]
Both species in this genus are popular in the aquarium trade.
