Moenkhausia simulata (Eigenmann, 1924)
Astyanax simulatus Eigenmann , in Pearson , 1924:41. Type locality: Creek at Puerto Bermedez, Marañon System. [Type locality provided in Eigenmann, Myers (1929): Creek at Puerto Bermedez, Marañon System, Peru]. Syntypes: CAS 62100 (orig. 10, now 6), with other four specimens now at MCZ 31875 View Materials (2), USNM 167811 View Materials (2) . [ All syntypes comes from a unique lot, IU 15860 ] .
Distribution: 316 (Eigenmann, Myers, 1929).
Remarks: Species name was first mentioned in passing with short account in Pearson (1924:41). This was later explained by Eigenmann, Myers (1929:523) who provided a more detailed description of the species, with syntypes and type locality specifications. Planquette et al. (1996) equivocally cited Moenkhausia aff. simulata for French Guiana. In that publication, the correct identification of the species is Tetragonopterus rarus ( Zarske, Géry, Isbrücker, 2004) .
Moenkhausia sthenosthoma Petrolli, Benine, 2015
Moenkhausia sthenosthoma Petrolli, Benine, 2015:408 , figs. 6, 9e-f. Type locality: Rondônia, Madeira, Rio Jaci-Paraná between Porto Velho and Jaci-Paraná GoogleMaps ; 9°15’23”S, 64°23’13”W. Holotype: MCP 48789 View Materials .
Distribution: 318, 319, 321 (Petrolli, Benine, 2015).
Moenkhausia surinamensis Géry, 1965
Moenkhausia surinamensis Géry, 1965d:102 View in CoL , fig. 2. Type locality: Brownscreek , km 114 from Paramaribo on the Paramaribo-Dam railroad, between Saramacca and Suriname River systems. [ Suriname]. Holotype: ZMA 104221 View Materials .
Distribution: 310, 311 (Géry, 1965d; Planquette et al., 1996).
Moenkhausia takasei Géry, 1964
Moenkhausia takasei Géry, 1964f:13 View in CoL , fig. 1. Type locality: Creek close to Belém do Pará , Rio Guama basin, lower Amazon, Brazil. Holotype: USNM 198136 View Materials .
Distribution: 323 (Géry, 1964f).
Remarks: Poorly known species. The paratypes from MHNG, which are better preserved, have the upper caudal-fin lobe dark, suggesting this species belongs to the Moenkhausia lepidura group (sensu Géry, 1992) (MMF Marinho, pers. obs.). A taxonomic study is necessary to understand its identity.

Distribution: 322 (Petrolli et al., 2016).
Moenkhausia vittata (Castelnau, 1855)
Tetragonopterus vittatus Castelnau, 1855:66 , Pl. 33 (fig. 3). Type locality: Bahia. [ Brazil. Details provided by Silva, Malabarba, 2016]. Holotype: MNHN 0000- 3088. [Type rediscovered by Silva, Malabarba 2016].

Distribution: 322* (Valter M. Azevedo-Santos, pers. comun.).
Species inquirendae ( Moenkhausia )
Moenkhausia lepidura ocoae Fowler, 1943d:234 , fig. 15. Type locality: Rio Ocoá, Rio Meta basin, Colombia . [Río Ocoá, south of Villavicencio, Río Meta basin, Colombia ]. Holotype: ANSP 70497.
Remarks: Despite being described as a subspecies of Moenkhausia lepidura , M. lepidura ocoae has both caudal-fin lobes dark (vs. only the upper caudal lobe dark in M. lepidura ).
Moenkhausia tridentata Holly, 1929:117 [1]. Type locality: Piquirão (Amazonasgebiet). [Piquirão, Amazon River basin]. Holotype: NMW 8947. [ Zarske, Géry (2006c) considered Moenkhausia tridentata as a valid species based solely on the examination of the holotype. The coloration of the holotype is not well preserved, but a horizontal elongate humeral spot, similar to that of M. comma , can be seen. Until a more detailed taxonomic study is done, we prefer to consider it as Species inquirenda in Moenkhausia , following Lima et al. (2003), see also comments by Bogutskaya et al., 2022:47].
