Abstract

"The goodeid fish genus Characodon Günther is revised and diagnosed on the basis of inferred derived characters of the ovary, embryonic trophotaeniae, male anal-fin clasper, and chromosomes. Three species are recognized: Characodon lateralis, C. audax, n. sp. from an isolated spring in Durango, Mexico, and the disjunct C. garmani herein resurrected as valid"--P. [1].
