Ammoglanis is a genus of pencil catfishes native to South America.
==Taxonomy== The relationships of the genus Ammoglanis are unknown; it is thought that this genus along with undescribed forms are the sister group to a large intrafamilial clade composed of several genera and subfamilies. In the interim, this genus is included within Sarcoglanidinae. Species formerly included here have been moved to Hyaloglanis and Salpynx.
