The goal of this work is to compile the existing information about the speciespresent in our country. This has been done by means of datasheets that list both localreferences and reviews by foreign authors that include Argentine taxa.The main information sources consulted were Ringuelet et al. (1967), CLOFFSCA(2003), López et al. (2003; 2006), Liotta (2006) and the online databases of W. N.Eschmeyer and Fish Base.This is an open-ended publication. As such, it will require permanent updating,which will depend on the good will and collaboration of the ichthyological community.With this contribution, we hope to help to build a database of the freshwater fish ofArgentina. The completion of this project will provide support to diverse plans emanatingfrom different sectors, as well as promote the diffusion of this field of research andreaffirm Argentina’s sovereign rights over our natural resources.
