Ageneiosus inermis, the mandubé,[1] is a species of driftwood catfish of the family Auchenipteridae. It can be found throughout South America, from Colombia and Venezuela to Uruguay and northern Argentina.[3][4]

The name Ageneiosus marmoratus has been recently synonymized with A. inermis. The description was based on a strongly pigmented juvenile of A. inermis.[4] The species feeds on a piscivorous diet, mainly hunting catfishes in the family Loricariidae and Doradidae.[5]
