HYDROCYNUS Cuvier, 1816 View in CoL
G Boden
Hydrocynus Cuvier, 1816:167 . Type species: Hydrocynus forskahlii Cuvier, 1819 . Type by subsequent designation by Agassiz in Spix, Agassiz (1829). Gender: Masculine. Additional comments: Some authors place Hydrocynus lucius Cuvier, 1816 as type species of Hydrocynus . This is based on a subsequent designation by Eigenmann (1910) and the thought that Hydrocynus forskahlii Cuvier, 1819 was originally not included in the genus description. Hydrocynus forskahlii was described for the misidentification of Cyprinus dentex Linnaeus, 1758 (= Salmo dentex Hasselquist, 1762 , unavailable name) by Forsskahl (1775), and known by the vernacular name ‘roschal’. This ‘roschal’ was included in the species list of Hydrocynus by Cuvier (1816). Moreover, Hydrocynus lucius , now known as Boulengerella lucius , is a South American species. Here we follow the decision to use Hydrocynus forskahlii as type species as first designated by Agassiz in Spix, Agassiz (1829), a species with distribution in Africa.
Hydrocyon Cuvier, 1819:353 . Gender: Masculine. Additional comments: Not intended as a new genus description, refers to the description of Hydrocynus Cuvier, 1816 , and can be regarded as an incorrect subsequent spelling.
