REMARK

The identification of the specimens from Tuxpan as Bicotylophora trachinoti was confirmed by Euzet & Wahl (1977). However, the specimens identified as B. trachinoti by Caballero & Bravo- Hollis (1965b) and Bravo-Hollis (1984a), were re-identified as P. atlantica by Amato (1994), and Lamothe-Argumedo & Pulido-Flores (1997). The material from Tamaulipas was not deposited in any collection; herein is tentatively included in P. atlantica .

NOTE

With exception of the records made by Sánchez-Ramírez & Vidal-Martínez (2002), all other records appears as Bicotylophora trachinoti in Kohn et al. (2006), but in accordance with Amato (1994), this species has not been recorded so far from natural fish populations.
