Steatogenys elegans ( Steindachner, 1880) View in CoL

Rhamphichthys (Brachyrhamphichthys) elegans Steindachner, 1880: 89 (footnote). Type locality: Mündung des Rio negro. Syntypes: (2) NMW 76413; 17 1/3 and 19 cm TL.

Rhamphichthys (Brachyrhampichthys) mirabilis Steindachner, 1880: 104 (figure caption), pl. 9 (figs. 1, 1a). Name on caption to plate; likely an unintentional alternate (although still available) name for Rhamphichthys (Brachyrhamphichthys) elegans .

Remarks: Eigenmann, Ward (1905: 171) treated Rhamphichthys (Brachyrhamphichthys) elegans [as Steatogenes elegans ] as valid over Rhamphichthys (Brachyrhamphichthys) mirabilis , thereby serving as first reviser.

Distribution: Negro and Amazon River basin, Brazil and Peru; Demarara River, Guyana, and possibly Orinoco River ( Schwassmann, 1984; Crampton et al., 2004a).
