Serrasalmo scapularis Günther, 1864:368 . Type locality: Essequibo River. [ Guyana]. Syntypes: BMNH 1864.1 .21.34 (1), BMNH 1864.1 .21.35 (1), BMNH 1864.1 .21.36 (1), BMNH 1971.5 . 10.58 (1).

Serrasalmo (Pygocentrus) striolatus Steindachner, 1908b:360 . Type locality: Rio Pará. [ Brazil]. Syntypes: NMW 10583 (1) and NMW 10584 (1). [Wrongly considered the senior synonym of S. scapularis by Géry (1976:53) and Jégu (2003:188)].

Pristobrycon baratai Amaral Campos, 1946:218 , fig. 1. Type locality: Rio Tapajós , Santarém. [ Brazil]. Holotype: MZUSP 3630 . Considered by Géry (1976:53) a junior synonym of Pristobrycon striolatus (Steindachner, 1908) .

Pygopristis antoni Fernández-Yépez, 1965b:1 , fig. 1. Type locality: Río San José , Estado Guárico, Venezuela. Holotype: MACLPI 65635 - A. Considered by Géry (1976:53) a junior synonym of Pristobrycon striolatus (Steindachner, 1908) .

Distribution: 307, 308, 309, 310, 311, 315, 316, 322, 323 (Jégu, 2003; Vari et al., 2009; Giarrizzo et al., 2015).

Remarks: Géry (1976:53) and Jégu (2003:188) considered Serrasalmo scapularis Günther, 1864 a junior synonym of Serrasalmus striolatus Steindachner, 1908 . However, Serrasalmo scapularis is an older name and it has priority over Serrasalmus striolatus . Therefore, we suggest Serrasalmus scapularis Günther, 1864 as valid. Kolmann et al., 2020:11 considered both species to be unrelated to Serrasalmus and to warrant a new genus. Serrasalmus scapularis is herein assigned to Serrasalmus until a formal generic description is proposed to allocate the species and its intra- and interspecific limits with S. striolatus are evaluated.

124, figs. 1a, 3)].

Distribution: 316, 318, 319, 321 (Jégu, 2003).

Pygocentrus palometa Valenciennes , in Cuvier, Valenciennes, 1850:296. Type locality: Rio Apure, Rio Guarico, et le bas Orénoque. [ Venezuela]. No types known.

Remarks: Listed as a nomen dubium by Valenciennes (in Cuvier, Valenciennes, 1850), and species incerta by Géry (1976:48). No additional comments in taxonomic review of Pygocentrus byFink (1993).

Serrasalmo emarginatus Jardine , in Schomburgk, 1841:231, Pl. 19. Type locality: not given. No types known Jégu (2003).

Serrasalmo nigricans Agassiz , in Spix , Agassiz , 1829:72, Pl. 30. Type locality: Brasiliae aequatorialis flaviis. [ Brazil]. No types known. [Author of species name is Agassiz according to Kottelat (1988:79) followed by Jégu (2003). According to Fink (1993:670), there is no evidence that the specimen examined by Müller, Troschel (1844:95) (currently ZMB 3630 ) was the type of Serrasalmo nigricans Agassiz, Fink (1993:670) also reported slightly different counts from those reported in the original description and some counts given by Agassiz do not match with Spix’s drawing].

Remarks: Analysis of the original description (Agassiz in Spix, Agassiz, 1829:72, Pl. 30) indicates the species corresponds to a Serrasalmus species, and not to Pygocentrus as proposed by Müller, Troschel (1844:95). However, there is not enough information to elucidate its taxonomic status.

Serrasalmo nigricauda Burmeister, 1861:536 . Type locality: Del Río Paraná, cerca de Rosario. [ Argentina]. No types known.

Remarks: Mirande, Koerber (2015b:16) mentioned this species has been forgotten and its identity is doubtful because no types are known and the original description does not allow a clear identification (see Koerber, Litz, 2008).
