Hollandichthys multifasciatus is a species of characin native to tropical South America.[1] It inhabits coastal rivers of southern Brazil , where it occurs from the state of Rio de Janeiro to the state of Rio Grande do Sul.[1] Although there are claimed records from Uruguay, these are likely erroneous.[2]
This species can reach 9.6 cm (3.8 in) in standard length.[1] It has been reported to feed on insects (both aquatic and terrestrial), decapods, oligochaetes, spiders, and plant material.[3]
