Abstract (en):
This paper presents an updated list of the fishes of the Pauto river basin, Casanare. The update process was
realized by collections in the field in the middle and lower part of the basin, revision of reference collections
and secondary information available. A total of 182 species are recorded. Of these species, 60 are new records for the Pauto river basin. Only one species is included in the Red Book of freshwater fishes of Colombia. At the regional level, 52 species were identified as ornamental, and 24 are used as food; 8 species are exploited for both purposes. Based on the results, it is indispensable to re-evaluate the importance of the Pauto river basin as an area of interest for regional conservation.

Se presenta un listado actualizado de los peces de la cuenca del río Pauto, departamento del Casanare (Colombia). La actualización se realizó mediante colectas en campo en la parte media y baja de la cuenca, así como la revisión de colecciones de referencia e información secundaria disponible. Se registran 182 especies. De éstas especies 60 corresponden a nuevos registros para la cuenca del río Pauto. Sólo una especie está incluida en el Libro Rojo de peces de agua dulce de Colombia. De las especies registradas 52 son consideras como especies ornamentales a nivel regional y 24 de importancia para consumo, ocho especies son explotadas con doble propósito. Basado en los resultados obtenidos es indispensable re-evaluar la importancia de la cuenca del río Pauto como área de
interés para la conservación a nivel regional.
