Taunayia bifasciata is a species of three-barbeled catfish endemic to Brazil where it is found in the Upper Paraíba do Sul and Tietê River basins. This species grows to a length of 14.0 centimetres (5.5 in) SL.[1]
Although presently the only member of the genus Taunayia, an apparently undescribed, cave-adapted species is known from Campo Formoso, Bahia.[2]
