  Ichthyophis elongatus, the elongated caecilian, is a species of amphibians in the family Ichthyophiidae endemic to Sumatra, including some nearby islands; however, whether these belong to this species is uncertain.
  
  Specimens allocated to this species with certainty have been collected from lowland forest and from a ravine near degraded forest.
  
  The type series varied 280–300 mm (11–12 in) in total length. It is relatively slim, with body width of 7.8–8 mm (0.31–0.31 in).
