On Gonorynchus, Gonorhynchus, Gonorinchus, Gonorhinchus and Gonorrhynchus, and some other names of labeonine fishes (Teleostei: Gonorynchidae and Cyprinidae)

Rue des Rauraques 6, 2800 Delémont, Switzerland (permanent address); and Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum, National University of Singapore, Conservatory Drive, Singapore 117377.
Pisces nomenclature Crossocheilus Tariqilabeo Garra Labeonini Garrini

Abstract

The supposed cyprinid genus ‘Gonorhynchus McClelland, 1838’ does not exist; the name refers to Gonorhynchus Cuvier, 1816, which is a junior objective synonym of Gonorynchus Scopoli, 1777. The correct family-group name, authorship and date are: Gonorynchidae Fowler, 1941 (1848). Tariqilabeo Mirza & Saboohi, 1990 is the valid genus name for the South Asian species earlier placed in Crossocheilus or ‘Gonorhynchus’. The family-group names Garrae Bleeker, 1863 and Labeonini Bleeker, 1859 are declared nomina protecta and Platycarinae Macleay, 1841 is declared nomen oblitum.
