Brazilian Caecilians
Brasilotyphlus
Brasilotyphlus is a genus of caecilians in the Siphonopidae family. It was considered monotypic, containing only the species Brasilotyphlus braziliensis, but the recently described species Brasilotyphlus guarantanus has been placed in this same genus. Both species have only been recorded from Brazilian Amazonia. This genus has also been suggested as paraphyletic to Microcaecilia.
