Microcaecilia taylori is a species of caecilian in the family Siphonopidae. It is known from two widely separated populations, one in southern Suriname and other one in Pará, Brazil, south of the Amazon River.[2] It is not clear whether the gap is real or whether the populations south of the Amazon River represent a distinct species.[3] Microcaecilia taylori was confused with Microcaecilia marvaleewakeae before the latter was described in 2013.[2][3]
