original: Chaetostomus hoplogenys synonyms: Chaetostomus alga Cope, 1872

Chaetostomus cirrhosus var. punctata Steindachner, 1881

Chaetostomus tectirostris Cope, 1872

type localities: alga : Peru, Río Ambyiacu cirrhosus var. punctata : Brazil, Rio Branco, Rio Guaporé in Mato Grosso, Coary, Tabatinga, Amazon hoplogenys : Brazil, Pará, Rio Capim tectirostris : Peru, Río Ambyiacu first record: Berg (1897) from Entre Rios sub Chaetostoma hoplogenys [fide López et al., 2003]

other records: Pozzi (1945): Río Paraguay (without exact locality)

remarks: In addition to the record of Berg (1897) there seem to exist no further precise findings from Argentina (checked in Ringuelet et al., 1967; Miquelarena et al., 1994; Liotta, 2006).

Fisch-Muller (2003) indicated “Distribution: South America: Amazon, Essequibo, and Paraguay River basins. Countries: Brazil, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru ” as distributional range. The distribution of this species in the Paraguay river basin could not be confirmed by Bifi et al. (2009).
