Astroblepus chapmani is a species of catfish of the family Astroblepidae. It can be found in the Magdalena River in Colombia.[2][3]

Although the patronym was not identified; Eigenmann mentioned a “Dr. F. M. Chapman” in a later (1942) publication, who was a traveling companion in South America; this may have been ornithologist Frank M. Chapman (1864-1945), American Museum of Natural History.[4]
