Dectobrycon armeniacus Zarske & Géry shares some dentition features and the presence of an interrupted lateral line with Hollandichthys and Pseudochalceus ( Pseudochalceus clade) and the presence of scales covering most of the length of the anal-fin with Markiana ( Astyanax clade) (Zarske & Géry, 2006). The available data would indicate a higher affinity of this genus with Hollandichthys and Pseudochalceus , but it is preferable herein to leave this genus provisionally as incertae sedis within the Characidae .
