Astyanax (Astyanax) trierythropterus Godoy 1970: 276 , figs. 1–4.

Holotype: EEBP 706 , 22.2 mm SL( Figure 2 ): Brazil, S„o Paulo, Pirassununga, Mogi-Guaçu River at Emas waterfall ( Figure S6–S 7 ), tributary of Grande River , tributary of the Paraná River , ~ 21°55′35″S, 47°22′1″W, ~ 545m asl, 15 Apr 1969.

Remarks. Godoy (1970: 275) mentioned in his methodology that the description was performed based on “(...) the type and paratypes (...)”, meaning that the name-bearing “type” is a single specimen (i.e., the holotype). However, holotype and paratypes were included in the same lot, viz. EEBP 706 ( Godoy 1970). Fortunately, the holotype was placed in a small flask within the jar, along with a label that reads “ typus ” ( Figure S8 ). In addition, the same label informs that the specimen was partially dissected ( Figure 2 ).
