Abstract<\/h4>\n

More than 100 species have been referred to\u00a0Rhamdia<\/em>\u00a0since its description, but in the last revision of the genus more than two decades ago, only eleven species have been considered as valid.\u00a0Rhamdia quelen\u00a0<\/em>was then redefined to include 47 junior synonyms, resulting in a species with a large distribution in the Neotropics, from Mexico to Argentina. Populations of\u00a0Rhamdia\u00a0<\/em>from west of the Andes have been recently removed from the synonymy of\u00a0R. quelen<\/em>, and currently there are 27 species recognized in the genus. Most cis-Andean populations, however, remain referred to the\u00a0R. quelen<\/em>\u00a0species complex. In this paper, we use species delimitation methods and multilocus phylogenetic analyses to delimit the species contained in the\u00a0R<\/em>.\u00a0quelen<\/em>\u00a0species complex in cis-Andean river drainages. Eighteen MOTUs in the gene tree were recovered with high support. We further demonstrate that the previous designation of a neotype for\u00a0R<\/em>.\u00a0quelen<\/em>\u00a0is invalid, and has to be replaced by the proper designation of a neotype from the type locality of the species. The neotype is designated herein and\u00a0R. quelen\u00a0<\/em>is diagnosed and redescribed.<\/p>\n
