Rhamphichthys pantherinus Castelnau, 1855 View in CoL

Rhamphichthys pantherinus Castelnau, 1855: 86 View in CoL , pl. 46 (fig. 3). Type locality: un lac près de l’Ucayale. Holotype: MNHN 0000-3993; 76 cm TL.

Rhamphichthys marmoratus Castelnau, 1855: 86 View in CoL , pl. 46 (fig. 2). Type locality: l’Araguay [ Brazil]. Holotype: MNHN 0000- 3959; 65 cm TL.

Remarks: Günther (1870: 5) serves as first reviser treating Rhamphichthys pantherinus as senior synonym of R. marmoratus (as well as R. lineatus ). Later, apparently starting with Eigenmann, Eigenmann (1891: 62), R. marmoratus was treated as valid over R. pantherinus , in error.

Distribution: Amazon, upper Orinoco and Essequibo River basins ( Carvalho, Albert, 2015, as R. marmoratus ).
