Though the family is commonly known as "parasitic catfishes", Trichomycteridae may actually include the widest range of trophic adaptations within any single catfish family. Only the two subfamilies

Trichomycteridae include species that are active swimmers (Copionodontinae and
Trichogeninae), torrent dwellers (Trichomycterinae), litter leaf dwellers (
