Mimosiphonops reinhardti is a species of caecilian in the family Siphonopidae. It is endemic to Brazil. It is only known from the holotype collected from "Brasilia" in 1878, probably somewhere in eastern Brazil[1][3][4] (the city of Brasília did not exist at the time[1]). The specific name reinhardti honors Johannes Theodor Reinhardt, Danish zoologist and herpetologist who collected the holotype.[2][5] Common name Reinhardt's caecilian has been proposed for this species.[1][3][4][5]
