Ivanacara are a genus of cichlid fishes from tropical South America.[1][2] This genus was identified as a new in 2006,[2] but many authorities do not recognize it and maintain its species in Nannacara.[3]

Species

  • Ivanacara adoketa (Kullander & Prada-Pedreros, 1993) – Zebra acara
  • Ivanacara bimaculata (Eigenmann, 1912)

Nannacara adoketa and Nannacara bimaculata were reassigned to the new genus Ivanacara.[2][page needed] This change has not been recognized by FishBase,[4] but it has been adopted by the Catalog of Fishes.[1]
