Callichthys fabricioi is a species of fershwater ray-finned fish belonging to the subfamily Callichthyinae of the family Callichthyidae, the armoured catfishes. This fish has a maximum standard length of 12.5 cm (4.9 in).[3] C. fabricioi is found in the trans-Andean upper Cauca River in the Magdalena River basin of Colombia.[4] Although described in 1999, two other cogener fish have since been discovered.
