Gymnotus pantanal Fernandes, Albert, Daniel-Silva, Lopes, Crampton, Almeida-Toledo, 2005 View in CoL

Gymnotus pantanal Fernandes, Albert, Daniel-Silva, Lopes, Crampton, Almeida-Toledo, 2005: 4 View in CoL , fig. 1. Type locality: Brazil, Mato Grosso do Sul state, Rio Miranda near Miranda ,20°11’78”S, 56°30’13”W. Holotype: MZUSP 67874 View Materials ; 196 mm TL.

Remarks: This species was first reported as Gymnotus pantanensis in Albert et al. (2005: fig. 1, tabs 1, 2, 4) with a holotype and elements of a diagnosis. Lacking is an explicit indication that the species is new, as required in ICZN (1999) Art. 16, which thereby renders the name as nomen nudum.

Distribution: Paraná-Paraguay River system, Brazil and Paraguay; Chapare-Mamoré River, Bolivia ( Fernandes et al., 2005).
