''Chologaster cornuta'', commonly named swampfish, ricefish, or riceditch killifish, is a freshwater fish of the family Amblyopsidae. It is the only living species of the genus ''Chologaster''. It only lives in US rivers in the Atlantic Coastal Plain drainages, from southeast Virginia to central Georgia. It lives up to two years. The Latin name refers to a very tiny horned bulge at front of the eye. Males are commonly 4 cm long, but may be as large as 7 cm. ==Characteristics==
This species is related to cavefish and blindfish Amblyopsidae. It is dorsally brown and ventrally creamy white, with three dark stripes on each side. It inhabits above-ground swamps, rather than caves. Although many Amblyopsidae species have vestigial eyes, the swampfish has functional eyes.
