Note. According to Cupello and Vaz-de-Mello (2018: 73), Sylvicanthon candezei does not occur in the Guianas. Earlier reports of this species for the Guianas may well concern S. securus or the recently described S. seag . As Cupello and Vaz-de-Mello (2018) report S. candezei for just north of the main channel of the Amazon River, we still consider this species as potentially occurring in the Guianas.
