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 .
