Luciobarbus magniatlantis is a doubtfully distinct, ray-finned fish species in the family Cyprinidae. It is native to the Atlas Mountains of Morocco.
Its natural habitat is freshwater springs. It is considered a threatened species by the IUCN.
The taxonomy and systematics of the Maghreb barbs are subject to considerable dispute. Some authors consider L. magniatlantis a distinct species, while others include it in L. nasus.
