Amblyceps carinatum is a species of catfish belonging to the family Amblycipitidae.

It is only known from the upper part of the Irrawaddy River basin in Myanmar.

[1][2] This is a small catfish (up to 36 mm standard length) found in fast flowing streams.

The main characteristic which distinguishes it from its congeners is the shape of the adipose fin: in A. carinatum it takes the form of a long low ridge starting just behind the dorsal fin whilst in all other Amblyceps species it is blade-shaped and starts well behind the dorsal fin.
