Hemicetopsis -> Cetopsis?

In CLOFFSCA and Cat-eLog, Hemicetopsis is listed, but in FishBase, the genus is now merged with Cetopsis...

How do you know it was merged? I mean, could it be that it's not yet been split?

It might be so, but it seems unlikely to me: all Hemicetopsis became Cetopsis in 2005 (Vari, Ferraris & de Pinna). See CoF.

OK, so I need to move all Hemicetopsis back into Cetopsis.

Great.

Hi Jool and all.

Jools you might not want to move all Hemicetopsis back to Cetopsis just yet. Some of the Hemicetopsis are now placed in Cetopsis, but others are now in the genera Cetopsidium and Denticetopsis (Vari, Ferraris and de Pinna, 2005). If you need a listing let me know.

Jools,
I checked these and added a synonym and a general remark concerning , the only one that should be changed.
I can't however change current valid names in the data sheet.
When this has been done, this thread can go to Resolved
