Studies on species distribution provide crucial information for political decision-making and conservation. In this study, we present a distribution extension of the streaked prochilod Prochilodus lineatus (Valenciennes, 1837) to Mirim Lagoon, extreme south of Brazil. This species has high potential as a fishery resource for the region and is an important organism in the energy flow of freshwater ecosystems. Following studies aiming to monitor the species occurrence in Mirim-Patos Lagoon are highly recommended. Additionally, we highlight the importance of studies dealing with ecological aspects such as monitoring of landings, reproduction, age and growth, and trophic aspects of the species.
