Prochilodus magdalenae is a freshwater fish from the Magdalena River basin in Colombia. It feeds from the bottom and has a sucker-shaped mouth.
Prochilodus magdalenae differs from closely related species in the shape of its mouth and its habitat in the Magdalena River. The fish is important for nature because it processes detritus on the bottom and serves as food for other animals.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
