Cheirodon galusdae is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish, a characin, belonging to the family Characidae. This species is endemic to Chile.[2]
This species was first formally described in 1982 by the German-born American ichthyologist Carl H. Eigenmann with its type locality given as the Río Locomilla at San Xavier in Chile.[2] It was named in honor of Piedro Galusda, superintendent of the state hatchery at Lautaro, where he planned the collecting of fish during Eigenmann's expedition.[3]
