Guianacara is a small genus of cichlid fish endemic to freshwater habitats in the Guiana Shield in South America.[1][2] They mostly live in moderately flowing clear- or blackwater rivers and streams, but also occur in lagoons that are seasonally flooded.[2][3][4] They are typically found over bottoms consisting of sandy patches intermixed with large rocks.[2][4]
