Anostomus garmani Borodin, 1931:47-48 View in CoL

Our assessment concludes that Mautari & Menezes (2006) correctly recognized MCZ 19370 as the holotype and MCZ 19346, 19366 About MCZ and 32099 as paratypes of L. garmani ( Borodin, 1931) according to the original designation. However, they failed to list one valid paratype USNM 120397 About USNM (out of MCZ 19366) ( Vari & Howe, 1991). In addition, we note that MCZ 94491[1] was found in the same bottle with the holotype, but Borodin only mentioned one specimen ( holotype) from the type locality. Higuchi in 1990 split MCZ 19370, retaining the holotype under that number and recatalogued the second specimen as MCZ 94491 which might be considered a paratype. Herein, we also note that the MCZ catalogue numbers in figure caption (plate 4, figs. 1 and 2) of the original description are reversed .
