Grundulus bogotensis (Humboldt, 1821)

Poecilia bogotensis Humboldt , in Humboldt, Valenciennes , 1821:154, Pl. 45 (fig. 1). Type locality: du plateau de Bogota. [Humboldt, Valenciennes (1821) refers the species (“The Guapucha”) as inhabiting, perhaps exclusively, at a height of 1360 toises (approx. 2,650m) above sea level, in the Bogota river, Santa-Fe plateau, Colombia]. Neotype: ZMB 33306 . [Román-Valencia et al. (2003) listed possible syntypes and selected one as a neotype for the species. In such a case, the selected specimen would become a lectotype and not neotype, and the remaining specimens would become paralectotypes. There is no evidence, however, that the specimens listed as syntypes by Román-Valencia et al. (2003) are syntypes. So, ZMB 33306 is actually a valid neotype and no original type specimens are known for the species].

Ctenocharax bogotensis Regan, 1907b:403 . Type locality: Hab. Bogota. A single specimen, 63 mm. In total length, purchased in 1868. [Colombia]. Holotype: BMNH 1868.3 .4.1.
