Rhinatrema is a genus of caecilians in the family Rhinatrematidae.
The genus is known from the Guyanas (Guyana, French Guiana, and Suriname) and adjacent Brazil.
[1] Most Rhinatrema are known to inhabit and live in areas of tropical forests where there is an abundance of dense, dead vegetation matter.
[3] Rhinatrema are primitive caecilians that have a true tail.
[4] Until recently, the two-lined caecilian (R. bivittatum) was the only species in the genus Rhinatrema.
