Pseudohemiodon devincenzii is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Loricariidae, the mailed catfishes, and the subfamily Loricariinae, the armored suckermouth catfishes.[2] This catfish is known only from a single specimen, the holotype, collected from the Uruguay River.[1] The holoptype had a standard length of 14.3 cm (5.6 in).[3] Its specific name honours the Uruguayan naturalist Garibaldi José Devincenzi, of the Museo de Historia Natural de Montevideo.[4]
